₦airaland Forum

Our small world disintegrated. Not as a result of warlords or natural disasters. It was out of our longings.
Many of us wanted to conquer the world and we were right to believe we could. After all, we used to be champions in our small world- Nairaland.

I've seen many writers push their luck out of Nairaland. But it's just not working well. Only a few like Peju Amadi, Larry, and Audrey can say they're still pushing well.

Leigh has gone on to publish a book that she had pushed well. Her new book is finding its way out there. Roy Ofili too.
But it's not enough. At least, not with the numbers of viewers we have here.

What can we do to make Nairaland authors earn more?
Oh I forgot two christian romance writers- Toyin Taiwo and Serah Iyare are pushing their ways.
Superb authors used to be here but are drenched in different issues
I'm talking about the Mosquitoes ( Red and White), Sabon, Mazi, Pamel, Prettyspiceyy, Ishilovee, Badru twins, Flakkygirl, Creeza, Rock, Frank, Kayemjay, and even Mynd.

I tried to run a publishing house, but I'm alone here. I've started publishing a few Nairaland Authors like Eva Jael and Royver.
I tried to publish anthologies from Nairaland authors, but this one man show isn't helping.

I need hands.
We needs hands. Like editors, book cover designers, marketing team. But who wants to drop their time or money just for the recognition? Or to be paid later

Yet, very few people have recorded success from here.

Any ideas on what we can do?

How can you help?

Please tell us.

Done. Thanks for pointing that out.

For the recognition and to be paid later, I will edit, rewrite and give the writers' words the beautiful touch they need.

For the recognition and to be paid later, I'm also one of the old writers of 2020. I can make your words look palatable.
