@BeesPoems This post is a general observation and a sincere plea against self-sabotage. Any writer/editor (of colour) out there using AI should know the potential damage they could cause an honest writer, and, in extension, a demographic that is way too talented for such stigma/disrepute.
I wish I made this post earlier. Typed it last month and saved it in draft. This painful truth needs to be heard. I expected the AI blow-up. Months ago, I noticed a disturbing pattern. I posted on our writers' group that it was only a matter of time for the wave to hit. 1/4
It's deceitful and unfair. Your greed or laziness or whatever is ruining the literary integrity of a historically talented continent. You may hide behind the shield of naysayers, race, and uncertainty. You may get the accolades. But the chicken will surely come home to roost. 4/4
Soon, human writers may stand no chance against it. More disturbing is that people's friends and some editors are using AI on writers' work without the writers' knowledge. The mess... Please, dear writers/editors, especially black ones, don't compound this AI problem. 3/4
I will say it again. As a matter of urgency, a good number of us Nigerians (travelling abroad) must undergo psychiatric/psychosocial rehabilitation first. You don't want to release this untamed, insensitive and vindictive pack into a sane society. Oh, you do not!
@carlterver Fear? Lol. What I wanted to say is the truth no one wants to believe. I'm happy you've at least spotted a pattern. I assure you, this is just the beginning. Soon enough, as an editor, you will be getting a glut of it and more (if you haven't already). The homogeneity will hit.
COVER REVEAL In A Little Boy’s Dream, a young boy dreams of becoming a soldier so he can protect his mother from the father he fears and despises. In Agbani Darego, four women seek a bride for a troubled young man,
@OsumareAyomi Congratulations!
I'm shaking. I've been getting published for nine years now. This is the first time in my life my work will be nominated for Best of the Net anywhere. Thank you, India. Thank you, The Hooghly Review. Thank you for loving “The Emergency Case at No. 24, Dolamu Street” soo much. 🥹
Here are our nominations for @SundressPub's Best of the Net 2027. 🎊 @misternagel @IWDL_Writer @MaureenTai @KingRobertJ @gretchenfilart @PeterLillyPoems @OsumareAyomi @ShikhaSLamba
The comments and quotes here prove that, as a matter of urgency, a good number of Nigerians travelling outside the country must undergo psychiatric/psychosocial rehabilitation first. You cannot release this untamed pack into a sane society.
@lakelady2282 Maybe they wanted a smaller number for their pages.
Rejections are part of the journey. I've received two rejections like this in the past, but this one leaves the most heartbreaking sting yet. I don't think I can recover from it. More painful is that I don't submit often and to many places at once (currently 5 on Submittable).
Look! So I've got some three poems in the most recent issue of Bombay Literary Magazine. Grateful to the editors and everyone @bombaylitmag. Please read me, will you? 🥹🤲❤️ share.google/rTAPjAXWywTuZa…

@Chiwenite_O Congratulations. 🎉🎊🥳
@NKaelid62097 Yes, I will place it below the first two because the stories in it were (the most) uneven. However, the strength of the collection, for me, lies in its simple, patient and unvarnished exploration of characters. Most of the stories may not give you "the oomph", but they satisfy.
I'm torn between "God's Children Are Little Broken Things" and "What It Means When a Man Falls from the Sky". "A Kind of Madness" is also in the conversation.
African literature has a short story problem. Nobody buys collections. Publishers know it. Writers know it. So, the best short fiction on the continent either gets published abroad or never gets published at all. What is your favorite African short story collection?
Wilful ignorance. Gay people can openly express themselves in today's world? Shame. You also find the mere visibility of gay people unnecessary, emphasis on "gay," when you lot attach prejudice to the labels. We aren't making the same argument anyway. No need to engage further.
@Everdoch Yes, you live alone in that world. Every sexuality can openly express themselves in a sane world. Only a subset let their sexuality dominate their every interaction. Gay literature Gay football Gay whatever they do. I'm not even against this though (beside thinking it being
@eniola_abdulroq @cornrowchuks Earlier, I said, "I agree that people are free to distance themselves from anyone whose conduct they find objectionable." So, I don't find pushing back senseless at all (There are sensible reasons). What I disagree with is seeing that as the only way of being sensible.
