Adichie writing workshop in Lagos this July

Creative Writing Workshop in July

Chimamanda Adichie and the Kenyan writer Binyavanga Wainaina will be
teaching a creative writing class in Lagos in July.

The class will be run as an informal workshop and will meet for a few
hours every day to discuss assigned readings as well as the writing of
the workshop participants. The idea is to encourage and promote
reading and imaginative writing. To apply, please send a sample of
fiction or nonfiction to [email protected] No poetry please.

You will be notified by e-mail if you are selected as part of the
workshop and will receive further information about the dates and
venue. Entries must be pasted in the body of the e-mail. No
attachments please. Deadline for submission is June 15. Notifications
will be sent by July 10.

My would-be husband in the parallel Universe of ??? ( Let me think of its name first) ... You always have the latest coolest updates and hook-ups:)

This is really cool. And if it is free + pickings are done based on merit (as opposed to who-know-who) then it would be totally AMAZING.

I hope they do something of the like in the states ... at least I would have a chance of attending (deep wishful sigh).
