  • Evaluating Your Novel – Storymoja Writers’ Blog [Look Out for the Blog Posts Expo at the end]

    So I hope that helps. And now let's continue mining around the internet, this time in the Kenyan cybersphere, for those interesting blog posts. If you just jumped down to see the Blog Posts Expo, yeah, go back up and read Frances' article, there'll be a pop quiz later and prizes to be won :) The purpose of the cybermining exercise is to identify the different types of writing you can do online. They will range naturally from short fiction, to opinion editorials and technical writing. I hope you enjoy and learn as much as I have. If you like these posts comment on them onsite, but also come back and tell us what you think. You could also nominate a blog post for next month's Blog Posts Expo which will be on June 20th. Alright, here we go!

  • Writing Sonnets – Storymoja Blog’s Poetry Week

    Posted: May 2, 2011, 10:00 am by Storymoja Africa
    When you bring it down to the most basic definition, a sonnet is a poem that follows a specific structure and shows two related but different things to communicate contrastive ideas, emotions, states of mind, beliefs, actions, events… I, for some very strangely masochistic reason, I have kept some of my school books that cover High School English Literature.
