Mustard Seeds in indeed
😂😂😂

About yesterday's Art class. Our group of future Picasso's were at work for over 4 hours practicing pen strokes. And let's just say, they proved to be mustard seeds indeed.

But that is why they came, isn't it?

Like every other investment, we will keep watering until they find full expression. The beauty we saw in yesterday's Art class was the courage to better ones-self at a craft.

Maybe we should organize one for Writers?
What do you think?

Planting Mustered Seeds

A while ago it came to my attention that a team member on Afroconomy was quite the pencil artist and has managed to hone his craft so well it pays him on his off days.

So, I had him draw me and what I saw impressed me. This got me thinking, and in line with our vision of investing in our creative talents in Africa, we could literary make many more like him.

Plant mustered Seeds so to speak.

We have decided to sponsor q mentorship program with our very own Tee Pencils... In this program, he will hold select young artists by the hand for over a period of 6 months, where he will train them to hone thier craft as pencil artists.

In addition to sponsoring this training program, Afroconomy will sponsor the first drawing tools for the best trainees at the end of the mentorship program, in the hopes that we have set the ball rolling for what can become livable skills for participants.

Prick no get shoulders; Horror/Comedy
Loading...

Some seven or maybe eight miles south-east of Wurukum’s traffic circle, the heart of Makurdi town, it looked as if it would be a warm morning, in the small hamlet, the few hundred locals who lived there called Apir.

As if it would be a brilliant day full of many bright colors. A day good for farming, devoid of any wicked weather likely to punish any outdoor actives.

But that was only at first.

Without warning, the darkness came. As though God, by whatever name you call him, had reached out into the sky and yanked a dark celestial curtain, theming of heavy clouds over the rising sun.

One moment there was this giant, brilliant, orange blur rising proudly in the east, and the next, the sky had turned grey and the golden hour of the morning was gone. Swallowed back into the passing night.

Then there was wind.

Strong, angry winds, that blew with standards of; on the eight-day, God said let there be wind!

In this violent tempest, something happened. Not even Latisha can say what happened, but she was alive again. Confused. Out of touch. Not sure how she had ended up in the family grave yard, where the tempest seemed most violent.

Her last memories, in-coherent flashes baring down on her senses with the weight of concrete; was her struggling. Her, biting and clawing. Begging and crying. Then in that madness of a hundred memory flashes overwhelming her, there was this one face she managed to focus on.

It was a somewhat familiar face. A face she remembered trusting. It looked down on her searingly, just before he pressed a pillow over her face.

It was the last thing she remembered before the nothingness that followed. ‘Had they killed her?’ ‘Did she really die?’ ‘Was she still dead…

Prick No Get shoulders!!!

Consumed by grief and denial, Essien makes a deal with a shadowy figure calling himself the Devils Accountant to return his dead girlfriend, a victim of ritualistic killing back to life.

Soon available on the app!

#1…

"Alkawari" by @ Tomna Alvin

Alkawari, comes in as our top pick for the 'Afroconomy Writers Prize 2022.' edging over our other top picks in uniqueness of idea and the telling.

The masterfully written Fantasy story, follows the Legend of '33' a shadow of Mirazhan and her nerve strangling adventures as she tries to forestall the return of Alkawari, the Spirit Of Unfulfilled Promises.

Raised on Daxnome in a matriarchy warrior society, (much like the Amazons of the big screen's) '33' thrills us from page to page, with her near impossible skill with the bow.

Tomna Alvin's good command of words, well structured plot, unexpected twists at every turn of events, and just when we thought he was becoming predictable, and also; his ability to put us right there with his characters, is a sure sign that he ready for the big stage.

congratulations TOMNA ALVIN

"The god in The Woods" by Surgeon Eru Confidence

The god in The Woods is a fast paced Saga that kept us right at the edge of our seats from start to finish. A true masterful stroke by Eru. The tale pitches the preternaturals of the fictional Mirkwoods against one another.

Five distinct skin-walker communities, fighting over territory have been forced into a loose pact by the Leopards. but trouble stirs when an errant leopard crosses into wolf territory to save a stranded stranger.

With her arrival on the scene, enemies much older than territorial squabbles are returning to the Mirkwoods. Survival depends only in re-instituting the old pact.

But the only preternatural strong enough to do this has a secrete that is threatening to burn the mirkwoods down all by itself...

With a word count of 60k+ 'Mandy's Super Trio' proudly claims our number 3 spot!

THERE IS NO ONE SIZE FITS ALL!

And the grace to understand this, or more specifically, the lack of it thereof, is why many young talents don't go far.

Tresh Cobhams Segun It is ok for you to decide that this piece is your favourite. And no sin to say; had you been a judge, it would have won.

Perchance; a judge or two even felt that way... 'perchance.' I mean the piece came in 4th place of a total 107.

But this was a collective decision, by seven judges...

Now while we appreciate how strongly you feel about this story, to begin to pray that 'God open the eye's of our esteemed judges,' especially when;

1. You have not read the whole manuscript?
2. You have not read excerpts from the wining stories?

No be juju be that? 🥺

Is 'on a blue boy Street' the Magna Opus of writing? Can this story and it's plot as you have read, dear readers not be improved upon?

So on what basis have you cohbams segun decided it couldn't have been surpassed by other submissions?

Every story that made the long list of 50 is worth taking a chance on... All of them. And had we the resources we would offer them all deals.

This is why we are currently working on publishing them all to our reading apps. On creating a lucrative platform where the authors of these beautiful pieces can earn of their craft.

Alas this is a competition. And there will only be one winner. Not because this winner has written "the one story to rule them all!" But because per set parameters, rules and expectations... They have edged out on top!

Vivienne Tet you should be proud of your brain child! It's a brilliant piece. But we encourage you not to internalize every opinion. There is always room for improvement. And you will be required to, if we do extend an offer for you to write with us!

Cheers

"On a Blue Boy Street" by Vivienne Tet

Ibemere Vivian's well crafted and heart felt telling follows a thirteen year old Chukwuma; who is gutted by fire and hospitalized for years.

Chukwuma blames his misfortune on God but must now navigate his life in harsh realities as he tries to find his father.

Ibemere's artfully written tale, employs a gentle touch and quiet humor, but spares us none of the chilling details, that earns 'On a Blue Boy street' its No 4 spot on our List...

It's almost a wrap to 2022, less than 3 days to go. As the year winds down, the conventional thing to do is reflect on the highs and lows through the year; more like counting your blessings and taking account of the lessons learnt from your Ls.

It's noble to say that the better mindset is having an attitude of gratitude; take a more resolute look at the positives and not the negative.

For us at Afroconomy, we've had our own fair share of Wins and we like to be loud it.

One of such is the privilege of organising the just concluded Writers Competition. And as reviews are ongoing for the shortlisted manuscript that made the cut and as we are getting ready to announce our winners, it's something we want to take so much joy in and the bliss of being part of the greatness creatives across Nigeria are up too.

Like they say, "trust the process", and the process we did enjoy especially when young writers sort to hold us accountable and require a show transparency of screening process and our credibility.

A testament to the resolve of young people and the value they place on their work. Big ups to everyone who drop comments, made enquiries and sent in their entry.

For benefit of hindsight, it awesome to say again what a privilege this has been.

Speaking of transparency, just to recap, as seen in carousel images, emails sent to individuals who submitted their entry for the competition.

Cheers to doing greater things together in 2023.

Touché!

Remember, the quite familiar allegory of the elephants in the circus is often used to illustrate how powerful the mind is and the powerful effect fear and failure have on people significantly. The fact that elephants so strong and heavy enough to weigh over a ton could be held to a little pole by a chain they can rip off by just the swing of their leg all because of failure from past attempts.

Slavery isn't on in chains; there are different shades to it. But the most colossal is when we are enslaved in our minds.

Pretty sure you are aware of thought-provoking books like: "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa" and many other works of literature, documentary and insights meticulous - rightly so unravelled how although a vast or rather all African nations have gained independence but yet still chained ideologically?

What do you think? In your opinion, what are the different shades of slavery we are still subtly subjected to that have kept us handicapped as a people?

Please share your thoughts by dropping a comment.
