I have been writing every day in March. I make sure I add a few words to my WIP. Slow progress is better than none. We have just two weeks left, and I have done a reasonable amount of work. I might continue till this work is done. I enjoy it.

Congratulations to our co-founder and board chair, Kanyin Olorunnisola, on his debut poetry collection. Copies are available through the University of Chicago Press: tinyurl.com/Araluebo #NewRelease #BookRelease

My book is out in Nigeria today and I don't know what to do. But hey, congratulations Adedayo. You wanted your book, The Years of Blood, in Nigeria so now you have it. It's in a company of accomplished writers. 🥹

went to a reading event to spark joy today :) #silentreadingparty @OuidaBooks

so many layers to this accessibility and book buying discussion, because i was just thinking of how unlike social media presence might make us think, physical bookstores with impressive fiction catalogue are not nearly as common throughout the country as we think,

When I come here, all I see on my feed is about writing and books. I love it so much. #writingcommunity

I recently wrote a review about The Fishermen by Chigozie Obioma🤗 This is not your regular African Fiction book😪😭 I'm still healing😭

I want to organize an X conversation where Nigerian writers (in Nigeria or in diaspora) will ‘rant’ about how their year went. We will share our wins and losses, talk about life, and all. We had one last year and it was amazing. I will share a date soon! Please, retweet!
