Nice gesture kinwayne. Regardless of how small the prize is, it is something we haven't seen in years in the literature section. The last we had something like this was with Princesa 5k a month for a writer.
SofiaAmrozia, you should get in here and participate.


I'm here, I'm here.

Your initiative is commendable but your demands are more like that of a slave driver considering the amount involved.

Do u realise that even with 5k, I can't celebrate after winning

The stages and word counts are nowhere near the incentive. I suggest you reduce the stages/word counts. I could even add a little sum to the prize money.

As a result of the number of interested participants and all the feedback I received, I've decided to cut down on the stages to two.

The competition would now be divided into 2 stages

In the first stage, the writer is to write a story of 1000 words, original and never before published on any platform.

The second stage, the writer is to write a story of 250 words, also original and never before published on any platform.

Why the small number of words? that's because I'm looking for quality and creativity in the writers written words.




At the first stage, the writers would be given a topic to write on. However, it's up to them to use their creativity to write on their given topic.



The second stage however, the writer is given room to write on whatever they wish to write on. They are to write on their own ideas.



Out of all the interested and participating contestants, Only 7 contestants would progress from the first stage and their progress would be determined by a panel of judges of nairalanders.



The winners in the second/final stage would be determined by ME.

The winners would be given cash rewards as advertised above.

The remaining four(4) writers who progressed from the first stage would be given airtime gifts in appreciation of their sportsmanship.




The list of every one that's shown interest in the competition would be compiled on Thursday 29th of June with further instructions afterwards..

The competition guidelines has been revised. Everyone please take note. Thank you
