HOW SYNW PUBLISHED OVER 300 YOUNG WRITERS THROUGH ITS DIGITAL PUBLISHING PROJECT

 

The Society of Young Nigerian Writers (SYNW) was established with the objective of promoting literary creativity and intellectual discourse among young writers in Nigeria. One of the ways that SYNW has achieved this objective is through its Digital Publishing Project. Through this project, the society has been able to publish over 300 young writers in Nigeria and beyond.

The Digital Publishing Project of SYNW was established as a means of providing young writers with a platform to showcase their literary works. The project has enabled young writers to publish their works and reach a wider audience. The project has also enabled SYNW to contribute to the development of literature in Nigeria and beyond.

To date, SYNW has published several e-books through its Digital Publishing Project and three hardcopy publications including the END SARS RHYTHMS published by the International Human Rights Art Festival (IHRAF). These publications are available on the Obooko website at www.obooko.com. The e-books cover various literary genres such as poetry, short stories, and essays. Some of these titles include Rising Voices, Songs of Freedom, Songs of Sorrow, Voices from Oja Oba Market, Moonlight Songs for Pa Nelson Mandela, Moonlight Tunes for an African Child, Upcoming Voices, among others.

One of the advantages of the Digital Publishing Project is that it has provided young writers with an opportunity to publish their works without having to go through the rigorous process of traditional publishing. This has given many young writers a chance to showcase their talent and contribute to the development of literature in Nigeria.

It has also provided young writers with a means of reaching a wider audience. Through the Obooko website, readers from different parts of the world can access and read the works of these young writers. This has helped to promote Nigerian literature and showcase the creativity of young Nigerian writers to the rest of the world.

Another benefit of the Digital Publishing Project is that it has encouraged young writers to improve their craft. By providing a platform for young writers to publish their works, SYNW has encouraged them to write more and improve their writing skills. This has helped to develop a new generation of talented writers in Nigeria.

It also provided a means of promoting social justice and addressing social issues in Nigeria. Many of the works published through the project focus on issues such as corruption, gender inequality, human rights, and social justice. Through these works, young writers are able to raise awareness and contribute to the ongoing conversation on these important issues in Nigeria.

Finally, the project serves as a means of empowering young writers in Nigeria. By providing a platform for young writers to publish their works, SYNW has empowered them to take control of their own literary careers. This has helped to create a new generation of writers who are confident in their abilities and are able to take charge of their own destinies.
