Avocado Publishing Co.

Every great story has that moment where the writer almost gives up. The blank pages, the rewrites, the “maybe this idea isn’t good enough” phase. But sometimes, those false starts are exactly what lead to the best stories. Catch up on our latest episode...link in bio

We are LIVE!!! Head on to our YouTube channel to hear all the deets🥰youtu.be/qwqFLjSPS24

Not every great story begins perfectly. Sometimes it starts with doubt, mistakes, rewrites… and a whole lot of starting over. Consider this your sneak peek from our latest episode of The Story Studio: First Drafts and False Starts dropping on YouTube by 12 PM today.

Before I travelled to Lagos with the @HelloAvocadoCo publishing assistant, my mother looked at me and said, “Your publishing company is becoming a big deal.” And I carried that sentence with me the entire trip. I am obsessed with books, and if you’ve ever seen the quality of production we insist on, you already know that obsession is not casual. We do not “manage” projects. We build them properly. This one stretched us in ways we did not see coming. We were on the road until midnight, moving things ourselves, carrying loads on my head without shame, dragging people and getting dragged in return, because sometimes that is what it takes to birth something properly in this country. There were moments that tested our patience and moments that tested our stamina, but there is one thing that has never been in question: I build for the love of the game, and the game will always be bigger than the stress that comes with it. Ladies and gentlemen, Code Name Phoenix by Chiemelie Kyrian Offor is officially live. You can order your physical copy now at avocadopublishingco.com, and we will be sharing bookstore locations across the country where you can pick up your copy. If you are ordering from Ibadan, I am not joking when I say I will personally deliver your copy to you. I am looking forward to your reviews, your hot takes, your voice notes, and all the conversations this story is about to start.

We will probably use the whole of this week to talk about Saturday! 😂😂😂 And when I can take a few hours off what I am currently working on, I’ll do a story time. In the meantime, follow @HelloAvocadoCo and ENGAGE!
