Princess, thanks for the lovely comment on my blog. God bless Nigeria and I believe change will come. Do you have any distributor for your books in Nigeria? Presently, book business in Nigeria is very encouraging if you have the right people. Have a nice weekend.

Hi!
Thanks for you comment. My only advice is that writing/publishing your story is only half of the journey; marketing is the other half, so promote yourself everywhere - online and in person!
