Welcome to the New Era of Writertain
When we first launched Writertain, it was simply a space to honour writers — their quirks, struggles, voices, and breakthroughs.
But like all good stories, we grew.
Today, Writertain is more than a blog. It’s a full-blown literary playground. A meeting point for writers, readers, game lovers, publishers, cultural curators, and literary mischief-makers across Nigeria and Africa.
So, what have we built?
We’ve built a space that respects your need for fun, your desire for skill, your hunger for visibility, and your love for stories — whether you write them, read them, teach them, or shape them.
Here’s how the new Writertain is organized
