Very interesting. It's true you should never judge a book by its cover. This actually buttresses my opinion that there are good people out of these bad lots, just like a little sunflowers among thorns and they shine when situations like these surface like afternoon sun.

Dr Royver, well done! And good luck!

Chilo.

I liked Chilo because I could really feel her emotions, her struggles as a prisoner of addiction. There are many Chilos out there.

For the way he solved mysteries almost akin to Sherlock, and for being outwitted, which shows his flaws.

How I wish I'm a writer .... It's nice to be creative, I enjoyed the fun writing throughout this year (2016) but couldn't continue because of my busy schedule otherwise I would have gotten fame and learn more from NL.... But I'm proud one of my imperfect work made front page 'ANINI RELOADED' even if my first story 'MY LIFE IN OZORO POLYTECHNIC' wasn't fully posted here because of the robot stuff... But I will like you all to check out my ongoing story now, and correct me where necessary. The title is 'PLAYER'S HEART'....

one thing I love about Nairalanders is that they encourages new writers, and it helped me in discovering my ability to write... It's part of the reason I got almost 8 stories within 8months (April-November)... I Respect you all especially the writers mentioned, but there are some I know that wasn't mentioned

Will you take the corrections with good heart?

I wanted to vote for you this afternoon; there was error. I will try again tonight. You story came late though.

sirhamilton:
I once read a quote that said something like: “It doesn’t matter how many 'No's' you get from men, all you need is just one 'Yes' from God”. And it made a lasting impression on me. On days like today, the overwhelming depression I had to stave off begged the question, ‘’when am I going to get a yes?’’. As if in response to the rhetoric, my phone beeped announcing the arrival of a new text message.
As my fingers tapped their way into my inbox I was certain it was the service provider advertising a product or service. My brows shot up in sudden interest as my brain registered it was a customized message.

A smile slowly creased my cheeks when I read the content of the text message for the second time; the interview was scheduled three days from today, I noted. When the security guard had asked me to leave my CV with him I had reluctantly agreed but immediately forgotten about it after I did

***

As I flung myself on the bed, try as I could, it was impossible to banish the memories from the interview out of my head. I had somehow managed to forget every answer to the likely interview questions I had memorized the previous night. I practically stuttered my way through the interview.

TWO NIGHTS LATER

On the verge of sleeping off, an email jolted me to reality. My sleep-filled eyes lit up as they skimmed through the contents of the mail. They immediately became misty when they saw for the first time who the sender of the mail was.

‘’ I Finally Got a Yes’’. This thought was still bouncing haphazardly off the walls of my mind when I slept off.

Do you mean I should vote for this story? Ye

Following his recent outburst on Facebook, I have made futile efforts to contact Larry Sun. Please, who has been able to contact him?

fikfaknuel:
Just googled it and yea, but the gentleman's title is 'Under the Brown Rusted Roofs."
It's set in Ibadan sef, hence the title.

But this is 100 percent my work.

I'm sorry I didn't mean any false accusations. I only wanted to put plagiarism in check.

Sorry once again.

Please, are you sure this work is yours?

There's a book with the same title written by Abimbola Adelakun ( A Punch Columnist).

@OMA4U

I understand where you are coming from, that has been my fear too. But sometimes we need to overcome that fear.
I don't know how we can overcome that, i.e. someone copying your work.
Hope some experts can wade in and help.

Good luck

We have gone round in circle on that.

I'd have posted the first round 2000 words, but the fear that the story will be plagiarized is holding me back. I'm putting so much energy into writing this and the story is precious to me. So the thoughts of having my hard-written story on somebody's blog without authorization is disheartening.

Still thinking....

Divepen1:
No

Okay, thanks.

Divepen, is it compulsory we post everyday?

Thumbs up, Ishilove. And to Sir Uche Okonkwo.
