i look at what people say when they need writers and I feel so embarrassed. how can you accept to write for someone for N1/word? you no get sense? writing should be N5/word upwards because anything less than that is slavery. some of you can't even write up to 4000 words of unique contents a day, and you are accepting N1.

And your point is..?

My point is that you should learn to be a professional, part of which is to charge adequately. If you don't have any other job other than writing and you aren't able to foot your bills, then something is wrong. How can you accept to write for N1/word/ U dey craze?

Those are the writers that denigrate the art for other professional writers.

Writing is a very tasking job. It's unfortunate the payments offered most times do not commensurate

Quite unfortunate really. And the owners of the job will want topnotch at the same time. People in this part of the world really like slavery, no doubt. If I'm to be a writer and one never-do-well nigger from the dark side looks me in the face and say he will pay me N1/word eh, I would simply send him to hell.
