The first print edition of our sister publication
Dansiki Magazine is out. It is a glossy, well-designed lifestyle publication
that covers issues relating to Africans worldwide. You can click on the icon to
see the 16-page sample of the magazine, or you may go to the website to get
additional information on subscriptions and on advertising opportunities. The
best option anyway is get your hands on the full edition of the magazine
through a subscription. Please go to www.dansikimag.com.
In the past year that this site went live there has been a
lot of traffic. I was hoping that this traffic would lead to considerable
submissions of poems, short stories and literary commentaries. This has not
been the case. We have had contributions, but not the volume we have hoped to
get. I am aware that there are many opportunities these days for budding
writers. KilimanjaroMedia is a
production company and we are currently generating our entertainment products.
We assure you, great things are in the works. Keep visiting on us from time to
time for updates from our production group. There are other projects, including
an anthology of new writing in the pipeline. From time to time I am going to
share with you photos that I took while on visit to Nigeria. I am starting with the three on this
page. I took the Onitsha photo (bottom left) while crossing the Niger Bridge from Asaba to
Onitsha in 2001. It is fuzzy all right and the smog is dense, but I did not want
to miss the opportunity, so I pointed my video camera and took this still
shot. The boat is on a river in
Kaiama in Bayelsa State and the gas-flaring photo (bottom) was taken in Kwale, Delta
State, Nigeria.
