Beyond Winning the Competition Just as we are doing with contestants who qualified by achieving a certain number of votes during Season 1, and 2, every contestant in Season 3 who's able to get a minimum of 500 votes will be welcomed into the prestigious GoSobo Network of Writers, GoNeW. This network is for these writers to connect and collaborate.

GoSobo will play the role of manager and guide to help GoNeW members access great opportunities, write better, sell and earn more from their books/eBooks, access free training, get mouth-watering discounts on premium training programs, collaborate in writing of books, and be sure of help from like-minds when faced with any kind of challenges in their writing journey. It is a network for ensuring that members are not alone. With GoNeW every member is sure to access better packages when publishing and promoting their eBooks on GoSobo Online Bookstore, which is live already.

Beyond the competition wouldn't you rather be part of such a mutually beneficial network of like-minds?
Do you know a good writer somewhere, maybe a friend or so? Then show that you're truly a friend by getting the message of GoSobo across to them.
Will you do that?

These and more is what GoSobo is about. Thank you.

GoSobo Writing Competition Season 2: 7th Day into Voting

The idea of GoSobo Writing Competitions dropped silently, no noise. It's about building a network of writers to help members leverage on the community to achieve massive sales of their eBooks, building an online bookstore for easy publishing of ebooks, establishment of writing services to give opportunities to members of the network to earn more, and providing a platform for training writers.

A young writer asked, why is it so difficult for a writer to access great opportunities and rise just like people in other skills easily do? Well, no one rises that easily, everyone needs to sharpen whatever skills they have, learn how things work in the particular industry, and find/leverage on a community of like minds. You must overcome the temptation/penchant to work alone, and please be patient. Writers need to work in communities to enhance growth, support, and opportunities. That's what GoSobo is here for.

GoSobo is about empowering writers. The competition is to help aggregate funds to empower many, give writers access to a network, and to lighten the load in publishing their books online. This is why all Contestants who are able to get a minimum of 500 votes become members of the GoSobo Network of Writers, GoNeW. Through this network members can access free training, get help in writing their books, access support for massive sales of their books, and have opportunities to earn more through the writing services provided by GoSobo.

So, GoSobo Writing Competition is beyond winning the competition. It is more about the opportunities that are available after the competition. Participating in this competition will help you as you push against some of the worst silent enemies of writers which include discouragement from low sales, absence of a genuine support group, and opportunities to increase earnings in the writing value chain. So, push ...

GoSobo Writing Competitions: One of Our Philosophies

With emerging technologies today, it is easier to read than in the past. And as population increases so is the need for books that can quench the unique literary thirsts of this contemporary times. However, the interesting thing is that though fantastic books are being written not many are known. This calls for something beyond just writing fantastic books.

For example, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's approach to her latest book, "Dream Count", bring some realities to light. I recall that the first time I viewed a promotion of her book was around October 2024 meanwhile the book was formally presented late March 2025. She did not just write a fantastic book then sat back expecting it to do magic sales-wise, no. She has been all out promoting her book. That's where the challenge lies with many Writers/Authors.

Many write fantastic books and do less than nothing or invest below average effort at best, to put their books before potentials buyers/readers. In order words they fail to promote/market, advertise and even sell their books. They expect magic because they wrote what they consider to be fantastic books. Well, it doesn't work that way. Though we appreciate the fact that many writers do not have resources to promote their books. GoSobo can help.

Here at GoSobo, we both encourage Writers to write fantastic books, promote their books, and also learn how to do much more with the emerging tech. The voting approach in our Writing Competitions is to ensure that, we both discover great minds and also challenge them to go out there and tell people to pay for their books, using mobilization for votes as a foundation. Therefore, seeing that we are not only going to discover great writers but will work with some of them beyond the competition to ensure that their books are published on our online bookstore, get free training exposures so as to writer better, access community support, they needed to prove that they're proud of their "PRODUCT" enough to sell it. What's the use of a fantastic book if the writer has no plans, strategy, and passion to sell it. For us at GoSobo,

"Great books are not just the ones written but the ones society can see to buy and read. No great book that is unread, is truly great."

This is why we require contestants to not only submit fantastic entries but to also plan, strategize, and passionately go out there to mobilize people to vote for them to win. Anyone who is not convinced about this approach will have a difficult time working with us. We are introducing initiatives to ensure that our Writers experience a new dawn in their writing journey, for good.

In all, our real platform for working with writers to achieve their dream is GoSobo Network of Writers, GoNeW. As we said, membership into GoNeW is by participating in any of the seasons of GoSobo Writing Competition and getting a minimum of 200 votes. In this network we use community sales strategy to ensure books written by members are jointly promoted on all media, access discounted rate when publishing on GoSobo Online Bookstore, etcetera. Contestants who qualified during Season 1 are already the foundational members of GoNeW. Those who wll make it will join them after the competition. Same for those who'll come from Seasons 3, 4, 5, and so on. We look forward to the time in the life of GoNeW when a book published by a member will have the leverage of being promoted by thousands of other members, all at once -what an unparalleled influence it will be, at zero cost!

I recall that the first time I viewed a promotion of her book was around October 2024 meanwhile the book was formally presented late March 2025. Whether she outsourced or not, one thing is clear; she did not just write a fantastic book then sat back expecting it to do magic sales-wise, no. She has been all out promoting her latest book. For over 6 months she focused on promoting her book and that's the challenge of many Writers/Authors.

Yes, many write fantastic books but they do nothing or below average effort at best, to put their books before potential buyers/readers. In order words they fail to promote/market, advertise and even sell their books. They expect magic because they wrote what they consider to be fantastic books.

GoSobo sees the need to both encourage Writers to write fantastic books, see the need to put their books before people, and also learn how to do that with the emerging tech.

That is the major reason we are going the voting route to determining a winner in any of our Writing Competitions. What's the use of a fantastic book if the writer has no plans, strategy, and passion to sell it. For us at GoSobo,

"Great books are not just the ones written but the ones society can see to buy and read. No great book that is unread, is truly great."

GoSobo Writing Competition Season 2

The entries pass through quality assurance to ensure they are up to standard, literary-wise. So it's actually a competition between fantastic write-ups where the winner is already known to be good enough to win.

You can check the season 1 which rounded up recently. You'll be glad to see congratulations flying around amongst the Contestants because they know the winner is a great writer. So, apart from winning we have more via GoNeW. GoNeW is the target of our process and not really winning.

Though GoSobo Network of Writers, GoNeW is in its formative stage, our vision is good writers who can also sell their own ebooks/books to be the ones to become members of GoNeW... that's the reality based on our contemporary times. A good writer who cannot sell his or her book can still access the services of GoNeW but not as a member.

So, the only way to become a member of GoNeW is to compete and get a minimum of 200 votes....and there are more reasons why we're going this route, based on our more than 3 decades of writing.

Know that, no matter how you classify your writing, you can become a member of GoNeW, but you need to go through the competition. Becoming a member of GoNeW will help you grow and achieve more in your writing journey -the benefits should not be sacrificed because the competition involves voting and a vote is N100 ONLY.
