Yes ooo! Whoever that's ready to enter for this competition must be aware that Narrative Magazine uses a very powerful tool to check for plagiarism. If you copied your work from somewhere else, you'd be caught, and you WILL be banned from participating. If you've got original works...make your submission and stand a chance to win $4,000. It's real. It's open to everybody, all nationals!

If you've been selling on other digital platform, and yet you don't have money for its publication...that's questionable.

But considering Nigeria's economic situation, I may not probe further.

That said.

There are other digital platform you can sell your ebooks...smashwords, kobo, kindle, are some of them.

Consider one thing as a writer...don't just start selling right away. As a writer, first of all make your works FREE for people to read, make them glued to your writing, make them fall in love with your works. When you do that, the trust, and love would have been built and developed in such a way that by the time you launch your work for sale, more than 50% of them would jump at it.

If you think that's too much for you to do, you can begin to write short stories, interesting short stories of say 5-minute read and at the end you introduce your work in form of ads at the end.

Build confidence and trust before you start selling if you really want to make your work of art popular; and if you want to sell to more than just your immediate family and friends.

Another way you could do this is by launching your own blog, where you write short stories, and the end of every story put little ads about your novel.

Better still, if you think that's a long-term, try to feature as a guest writer in niche blog that promote ebooks, short stories, and other websites that promote works of arts. These blogs would be glad to have you write for them, and they'd be happy to launch your work to their followers and even place free ads for you on their blog.

Example of these are: ebookscafeng (Nigeria), smashwords (USA) www.smashwords.com, narrative magazine (USA) www.narrativemagazine.com etc I can go on and on with the list.

But make sure you verify the authenticity of any blog or website you want to deal with before venturing in this method. However, the ones i listed above are legitimate. Any other ones, make sure you verify them.

Take away: You can even enter for the 2016 Narrative Prize of $4,000 with your original story. It's free for every writer. I wrote about it already, check it out here: https://www.nairaland.com/3129906/4000-narrative-prize-too-participate
