From the title you can see the op doesn't know much about adjectival placement......
Should have read TOP 20 best nairaland writerS of all time......

If you don't know these simple things,how can you appreciate literary art

Let's not take life so seriously please. Have a great week guys

greg42:


You sound like you have a brain.....This op is clearly looking to attract attention......

Everyone does. Usage varies.

joseph1832:
It's the shame associated with their brain power. I barely, even hardly read any story in this section. Frankly, I don't even read any story here.

The OP, in his haste to name writers, overlooked writers who have proven their penmanship here and other section.

I find it funny that most writers who write about love, romance and affairs of the heart in this section can't even hold a proper debate in Romance or family section without sounding more foolish than the league of certified morons_ in Romance section.

It is like I mentioned to you sometime ago, when reading up a story full of suspense and intrigues, one may get carried away by the storyline and plot without doing a critical appraisal of the writing style.

It's natural. I remember reading mynd44's thread recently about girls behaving like fishes. Story was enthralling but writeup was just shyly nudging the mediocre mark!

Lol...Have a great week yourself

Have a nice week yourself...ehm, permit me the leisure to exercise this itching curiosity, please.

Are you she whom your DP portrays?

Well, my fellow writers, you guys have heard. So let's tighten up our style of writing. The critic may sound harsh, but let's learn from it.

All the same, we have good story tellers than good writers in Nairaland.

To me, I'm always clear to pick out the message in whatever a person is writing about. It's a no no for me to read something I can't gain from, intellectually.

I'm really tired of reading about the pros and cons of relationship. That's what is prevalent here, it's harrowing, I tell you. Nothing worth learning from, like intelligence one can really learn from.

One could actually write about a dumb subject in an interesting manner and beautiful diction. It's the style before the story for me.

Yea I know. Most peeps don't bother about writing style, just reading about how a bad husband abused/cheated on his wife and got caught.

Yep! That's my picture

I have been summoned to this debate.

Initially when I started reading the literature section a few good ones stood out to me.
My critical eye did notice a few things but I decided to overlook the errors.

A lot of stories had garnered a lot of views which to me when I read the them; were unintelligible.
So I thought that was the standard on here.

The other thing that then softened my judgement was that most people on this platform are at the minimum bilingual.
So I thought that was the reason some pieces of fiction were strange.

But please note these people have taken their time to upload their work for their audience to appreciate.

Plus also be aware people are writing using their phones.

Keep on writing folks ..just aim to get better.

If you are lucky enough to have someone who looks at your work critically when uploaded and points out your mistakes. Cherish the person.
My online spotter knows who he is and I am grateful.

I am ready to help people if required.

Keep plotting and writing folks....

Your skin is of a brown chocolate radiance. And you're well-fleshed in a bedazzling feminine formation.

Perhaps you're new here? I can't seem to think why I have missed your presence until this morning.

A good story can't have style and not be interesting to read.......If your aiming to please......everyone would Undoubtedly be pleased if style was given more priority

Thanks for the compliment. It's the Lord's doing. I am sure the ring on the 4th finger is very conspicuous. Lol

I am aware but her beauty left me numb of reason and deprived of manners. My apologies, but I'm a pushover for beauty and intelligence-- a scarce virtue these days.

Since you're so particular about getting views, it show you don't like writing, but seek attention from writing.

Hold it right there......How is a writer supposed to know if they are doing a good job or not.....so the views are integral to commercial art........lleigh I particularly like your work on the river...keep it up

greg42:

You write and put your work up for criticism, not to see how many people view it.

That's why I write poems. All my work are put up for peeps to criticise and point out loopholes, not for me to measure the amount of people who viewed it.

You'll see your errors when people who are equally gifted like you or more gifted than you start appraising your work.

That's how it started for me. You should do the same too. I strongly advice.

Not everyone thinks like this unfortunately.An artist has a flexible point of view....

Artist? Flexible point of view? Are you saying an artist will put his work out for peeps who don't know a single thing about art to criticise?

DarkSavage:


And OP, next time, entitle your thread by adding "My Subjective Opinion" . You're in no position to announce who Nairaland best writers are. Your impudence and arrogance is a bit more startling than your taste for good literature.

Really, so stupid a person

Truth chokes you so much I see. I didn't mean to offend you, I just came with a banner of truth. But I see it crawled up in your skin and ate your nerves. Sorry.
