About Me
- Name: Wordsbody
- Location: Lagos, Nigeria
I am a writer and arts journalist now based in Lagos. This is a blog on arts and culture. The focus is on Nigeria's art scene, especially her 'Word's Body' - the writers. As and when, we'll also touch on wider African writing, as well as international literature. In short, a saturation of the arts.

Your posts are really engaging. I definitely will bookmark your blog.
Thanks
Tonight I was at a party celebrating the merger of a writers group of primarily poets, and an art gallery in Minneapolis. A Nigerian poet and performance artist presented his work. I could only think, Molara is here in spirit.
Regards.
Dear Renegade Eye,
Hope you enjoyed yourself at the Writers' do.
And a Nigerian poet was there? You bet I was there in spirit!
Molara
