^ ^ ^ I believe these people will do a great job, it would have been awesome if we had the likes of Larryson, brokoto and Frank3 16 but they are very busy atm. Naptu too is very proffessional but he couldn't make it so guys you will have to do with them, I would advice you to study those thread links I pasted there. Well, goodluck. |

Believe me, i know the feeling cos am walking that path. knowing i dnt give a heck for serious sh.it, i still try to take my chances and face challenges head on, then after that is done...i can go shout 'yipeee' at the sunset beach. (now, i was heavily on sedative while i was typing this ) and who told you that i was ever thinking of bleaching, black and pretty all the way baby |

Re: Short Story Competition by kayemjay(m): 2:29pm On Sep 25, 2013 |
The final list of judges is made up of people who are FANTASTIC writers and I stand to be corrected. Each Judge is seasoned, has a very impressive fan base and can boast of a consistent track record. Their varying writing styles, genres and intellect will make it a very very intense and grueling feat to come out on top. My own small advice be say: Be Original. Be real. Express yourself. Carve a niche for yourself. And most of all, enjoy your write up. If you cant enjoy what you typed yourself, it's very likely that others will not enjoy it too. Spacing, paragraphing, sequencing, typographical and tense errors should all be considered. See you guys at the competition. Wish you all the best! Muah! |
Re: Short Story Competition by FoxyFlow(m): 2:47pm On Sep 25, 2013 |
Tomorrow is the day I will start reading people's update. Nice to see my boys clamouring to win the competition. I tip you guys. If una allow babe to win, una don fall hands o. Una know say na female judges many for here pass. Goodluck y'all |
