It's very surprising this thread hit front-page but is still struggling with one page..

All the trending topics contain Boobs and Ass ( mostly )

It's not about Naira Marley, Tonto Dike or snakes so don't expect the masses to come here!

Don't know Nora Jemisin but i'll find out about her.

She's known as N. K. Jemisin. Her books include: The Broken Earth trilogy, Inheritance trilogy, and the Dreamblood duology.

Waaay better writer than that overhyped hack Nnedi.

The original slay Queen

That's my girl. A great personality

VULCAN:
She wrote 2 or 3 episodes of Black Panther: long live the king.

Definitely the worst depiction of T'challa ever put to print.

She reduced one of the most brilliant and inspirational comic book characters to a bumbling simpleton. All to further a feminist agenda.

I have no regard for female comic book writers who instead of creating strong women prefer to weaken strong men.

Two of the best comic book writers today are women. Go and read SAGA and MONSTRESS. Monstress is also drawn by a woman and i consider it to be one of the best drawn comics I have ever seen and this is coming from someone who has been reading comics for 40 yrs so I know what I am saying, I am no woman hater. But I respect those writers because they created strong female AND male characters.

God deliver us from these false feminists who seek to undermine men instead of uplifting women

Can you forgive? You know, in any write up, even the strongest characters are created with flaws.

Wow.....i've heard about her before, but i never knew She was this good.....we have so much potentials in This country, but our leaders have ruined the country so much that most of the potentials is never Utilised and many of it are lost to other countries.

How come most people don't know she wrote Black Panther?

VULCAN:

that is What Nairaland has turned to , hardly anything educative, but threads about bobrisky, tonto, bbn always make frontpage.........so You are the one that first took the name i first wanted to use, that i had to add to it just to be able to use it.

Abagworo:

I don't know why its not common knowledge. But she wrote some parts of the Black Panther comics, and other writers contributed also. People should read more about their favourite books, comics and movies.

purples25:


you can get her books at all relevant online stores. Some local bookshops would also be selling her books.

Alright thanks

OMG, you wanted Vulcan as well. I don't even need to ask why. Anybody that loves Spock is my friend.

There is no need to defend her my dear.

She messed up.

A great writer needs to delve deep into an old character before putting pen to paper. They must find what is the essence of that character then play around with that. Christopher Priest and Reginald Hudlin took the essence of Black Panther and made it so much more.

An average or mediocre writer just overlays their own prejudices over a character and destroys it for those who fully understand what the character stands for. I'm always wary of female comic book writers because the first thing that the average ones do to a preexisting comic is to lay a feminist layer over it instead of just telling a damn good story.

I have some of her books in digital format. They were so interesting !

About my book, i'll be posting some parts of it here soon. Courage to write and confidently present it to the public is not easy though, but if i dont try now, when will i, lol.

I would really love to read your book too.
I'm also trying some scribblings. But I hope to finish my Manuscript before the end of next year.

meobizy:
Why was she chased off Nairaland then?

For real?

Abagworo:

I don't think she wrote Black Panther but wrote part of the series..

This is awesome. I'm really happy that you look forward to that, and i hope you get to finish yours as well. We will get through it all, by Gods grace.

Can I get her book in pdf format too?

Amen.
And about your book. Can I get a peek?

Nnedi Okorafor , Writer! I am proud she is African like me.

My Nnedi! Nigerians really slept on her tbh. She is good at the sci fi books she writes. She also writes for marvel and is best friends with George RR Martin (Game Of Thrones)

Prospedro:

Amen. And about your book. Can I get a peek?

Of course, I'll be posting some parts of it here soon.

VULCAN:

apart from star Trek , Vulcan is a name of a Greek/roman god.

Met her at Akefest a few days ago. Strong and imposing personality. Between then and now, I've read the Binti trilogy. Not bad I must say.

I am sure it would have been so interesting having a conversation with her.

Okay. I'm anticipating that.

Very true but Star Trek has taken over that word.


Very few people today know anything about Roman mythology.

So was your interest based on the Roman mythology?

I'm sorry, but the combined effort of trying to get across to you all and sending few or many of her books would actually be very stressful and take some time, so i wont be sending again. I apologize for disappointing you.

Like i told maynation , you can get her books on amazon and other online stores.

Technology has taken care of that. You place all her books in a folder in Dropbox then share the link here. QED

That's how it's done
