    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Two Face 4 months, 2 weeks ago

    Keep writing and you will evolve better styles. You’ve got the potential to be better.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, My Beloved Husband 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    You really can write and with patient honing of the same, you would get better. Though you can write, you do not have the brilliance of story or how to turn a usual story to a reader’s delight. Work towards […]

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Endless Nightmares 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    Bad reading+Bad editing = Bad and watery writing. And more importantly, when next you want to write, watch your tense. If you want to use the Present, stick with it and stop wandering between Tenses. Keep reading […]

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, In Times Like This 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    You write well, however, this is not just brilliant. There are so many cliches and the most part of the narration is cliched. I was expecting, knowing you are narrating on a factual and real event, you would […]

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, My Lagos Commute 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    This is really not it. You will get to that acceptable standard someday, just keep writing.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, A Heart In A Bank 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    *deeply sighs* This does not interest me a bit. Just keep writing…

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Okula – A daughter’s vengeance 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    Man, check your tenses abeg. That is one of the things that puts me off in a short story. And your poor tense use really puts off yours. Good luck anyways.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, It’s Past Midnight in Tripoli 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    Just work more on your story. This is not really what will win you this prize. There is no catching creativity in this story. Read more, writer.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Moonlit Clearing 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    Really good. I wish you good luck in the competition.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Snakes And Anthills 4 months, 3 weeks ago

    This is not gripping at all. A reader’s time is wasted reading this.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Count It All Joy 4 months, 4 weeks ago

    The young shall grow. Keep writing and you will get to that standard someday.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Our Ram Is Haram 4 months, 4 weeks ago

    Uhmmm… This is good and funny too. I just don’t like the use of some of your elitist words. Those words spoil the naturalness of the piece. Good luck in the competition.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Shards of Love 4 months, 4 weeks ago

    Good but you could still have written it better.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Wise Kobo, Daft Millions 4 months, 4 weeks ago

    With the bad spacing in this story, it will seem you typed this from a mobile phone and submitted it that way. That is really bad, it spoils the reading for the reader. The words are just so cluttered up. You […]

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, When Tomorrow Comes 4 months, 4 weeks ago

    This is naturally beautiful. I so love this story. You got me hooked all through it. I wish you the very best in this competition. I love this line as it commands a powerful imagery for me:

    “I left the scene […]

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, In Obedience To Fate 4 months, 4 weeks ago

    I read this first and was confused. Seeing the glowing comments, I had to have a second reading, but couldn’t really make anything from the story. This story is not just it, writer. Really, you have a lot to learn […]

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, A Lust Intervention 4 months, 4 weeks ago

    The story is good and brief too. Good luck in the competition.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Gospel for the Rich 5 months ago

    Beautiful @afroxyz. You nailed the matter truthfully. This is exactly what is happening in church these days joor. But also, I believe, for the better good of all in the church, it is not good one dresses so […]

    Congrats to the winners. Way to go, NS. When upcoming writers win prizes, they are emboldened.

    Joseph Omotayo commented on the post, Sins of Social Networks 8 months, 1 week ago

    For me, this is a cliched article. You only wasted time mentioning things already known. And why would you go to having this writeup in parts when you could still write the same thing within an article? Get a hold […]
