BlkDiamond, what do you expect to derive from the competition? The prize money (though you live in the USA, according to your profile and the prize money is under 300 dollars) or the prestige that comes with winning a prize?

Can never advise any Nigerian residing abroad to go in for the competition, just for the prize money. 33k Naira in Nigeria is a lot of money, but for under 300 dollars? Please get a part time job and let the money be given out to a needier person

is it only stories? What about poetry? I am ready to enter for the competition if it is open to the three genres because you never can tell, the best may be a poem. Please reply

Hey, that a very nice innitiative. Studies have shown that a  very high % of Nigerian's don't read books, talk less of writing. We always like stuffs ready for our consumption and not ready to think and be creative.

Great one there mate, keep up the good work. I am writing a book right now and its not easy, but i got to pusch through, cause i don't think John Grisham, Steven King, Salmon Rushdie are NERDS. If you are joining in writing, don't place the 33,000 Naira on your mind; BE CREATIVE.

This is quite encouraging and appealing, but may I know what will be happening to the copyright on my write up. Is it to be sold along for the 33,000 naira prize.

« #20 on: June 07, 2007, 05:34 PM »

I think i can do this, but we need to know what to write about, or should we just write about anything?

33K is good money for me at this time.

@ all

There is really no subject matter nor any kind of write-up; just be creative - it could be humorous, serious, politics, poem, joke anything: Just be a blogger! Be creative! Do something!

firstly,what happens to the copyright.
and am of the opinion that 33k is not a lot of money in nigeria because of inflation.most people will be broke before weekend if given 33k on a monday.also limiting the write ups to a couple of topics will create a basis to rate the write ups.u might just get really crazy write ups.

with all due respect sir,
i didn't mean place a URL that leads to some site in this massive island of organized confusion --- i want you to write, with your own hands, in your own words; a little' succint description of yourself and what you hope to achieve with this your generous initiative. that too much to ask ?
