I checked it out ages ago but found most of the chat there a little juvenile - but I'll give it another go. <BR/><BR/>On Purple Hibiscus/Chimamanda Adichie - she is already represented in Nigeria by another publisher (Kachifo) - the book will be coming out here soon. We (my partner and I) were part of the group who originally brought her on tour here 3 years ago with Purple Hibiscus.<BR/><BR/>She does seem to be spending a lot of time in the UK these days..Jeremyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07506241936615649754[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-1156433551879509712006-08-24T16:32:00.000+01:002006-08-24T16:32:00.000+01:00Jeremy<BR/><BR/>I read your blog regularly. I read about the book promotion tour of Diana Evans (I hope that's her name) and thought to myself: How can you make this sort of content available to the nigerian youth; maybe find a way to compress the book into bite sized pieces of content and sell for a couple of naira each. Perhaps even recommend your books to literature and english lecturers at nigerian universities..find a way to make the content affordable. <BR/><BR/>Another resource is nairaland.com, a website with 50000 registered nigerians with a maximum ageof early thirties ( most of them based in the diaspora). Only been going 14 months and already attracting lots of posts. Another good way of advertising your books.<BR/><BR/>Just listened to Marianne Frostrup interviewing the author of Purple Hibiscus (nigerian lady). You could be her agent in Nigeria promoting her book there<BR/><BR/>Couple of ideas for you<BR/><BR/>:-DAnonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-1156358557555045882006-08-23T19:42:00.000+01:002006-08-23T19:42:00.000+01:00<A HREF="http://256bits.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Playing now:</A> track 2 (Les Ibeji) from ayetoro's new album Omo Obokun Chronicles Vol 2...the flying monkeyshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00294875520555839146[email protected]
