Event: 2018 Coal City Book And Literary Festival —Attend

I am happy to announce that there’s a literary festival in the South-East of Nigeria. If you are a literary enthusiast, you will definitely want to make out time to attend the series of events. It will be a good opportunity to meet other writers, sell and/or buy books and even learn about writing and publishing.

The event is being organized by ANA, in collaboration with Enugu Book and Literary Society. It is slated to hold from the 14th – 23rd of September, 2018.

Venue: Polo Park Shopping Mall, Enugu. event? (Popularly known as Shoprite Shopping Mall)

Will I be at this literary festival?

Most likely. I am a big rosy fan of literary gatherings and frankly, it’s been a while. Motherhood hasn’t allowed me the luxury of traveling as much as I used to. Anyway, I am glad this festival is pretty much at my door step and so I’ll definitely make out time to be there.

You’ve probably noticed that the festival has already started so you don’t have all the time in the world to think about attending. If you want to attend, just get up and go.

What are your thoughts concerning this festival? Let us know in the comments section.

    This is quite apt and felicitious. Although the location is somewhat far from where I stay…but as a lLiterary Enthusiast and a writer also, I will make out time be there because I believe it’s gonna be auspicious and propitious….
    This will also be of great help to me in my 5th and 6th novels I’m warming up to ejaculate….and most importantly in my upcoming annual literary festival in memory of Late. Prof. Chinua Achebe.

    So, I’ll surely be there….

    But if possible, I humbly such a great event like this should also be replicated in Anambra State where we have a bunch of promising young men doing great with pen.

    All thanks to the organizers, and also to Miss Chioma Iwunze for informing me of this wonderful opportunity and other lumps of opportunities via her wonderful website…. Creative Writing News.

    See you all in Enugu…

    Enugu, here I come….
