Nigerian writers, another call to write!

I received another e-mail some time ago. This one is from Nelson Publishers and they request a short story on the general theme "Living in Lagos -The frustration, the fun, challenges, opportunities etc of life in a mega city." to be included in a "Compilation of short stories".

With the deadline fast approaching, and not having started to write anything myself, I thought it best to make it available here so my readers can take advantage of it. Read on ...
