Mynd_44: They have all seen it and i am waiting for verdicts

E<R>F:
I think this is ya first contact with each other and it turned out red ..lol

Mazi_Omenuko: Hi Mynd,

I seek your indulgence to start my brainchild; A short story competition here at the Lit section.

As the name suggest, its going to be a short story competition and I intend it to be for newbies alone; by so doing, I will encourage newcomers to test out their skills in story telling. Its not going to require great logistics as I will work together with just few people.

I would like you, as the Mod to have it stick on top of the board and provide needed assistance when the need arises.

Awaiting your response.

Thanks

(Would have mailed you but don't have your address)

Ruby spice: The village is like one of those villages that wouldn't have developed if a university wasn't situated near by. It had poor drainage system leading to horrible roads. When it rains there, people had to literally swim some parts before they could get to their lodges.

chistar01: hmmmm.. Yea, that's right. Ruby, work on your descriptions just as chima just said, most of us didn't attend futo and we don't know how the lecture halls, lodges, church and even the characters look like, so you should help us to describe the environment, scenes, characters so that we can easily have a clearer image of the whole thing in our heads.

For example - 'rumour had it that prof Iyke was a man in his late fifties but I doubted it because he looked far younger. He was as robust as a Christmas turkey and could never be caught wearing corporate clothing as he was always on different native attires which were so stylish in nature that I even considered dropping all my western clothing(corporate and casuals) and adapt to his mode of dressing'.

nikky5: Can someone start a thread on movie scripting on this forum?Right now I am transforming one of my detective comedy script to a comedy story book.Am sure its going to be one of the funniest books Nigerians would like to read at all times except during meals cos that's the CAUTION.The starting point of any good script is a very good storyline followed by the plotting.Lets talk more about this next time.
