Few writers are likely to ever publish bestselling books that yield royalties leading to real wealth and financial independence. This is true for writers in literally any country in the world. But it is especially true for those based in Nigeria and Africa.
However, advancements in PC and Internet technology have today made it easier than ever before for writers in Nigeria/Africa to get paid for their writing.
As a result, writers right here in Nigeria now earn income from sales of their products via 3rd party digital marketing platforms often at low to zero cost.
Examples include Print On Demand Publishing platforms like www.amazon.com, www.lulu.com etc.
Then there are those which enable writers get paid to sell articles they write and/or to get paid to write articles for others.
But despite this apparent improvement in availability of opportunities to get paid, the truth remains that most writers, especially in this part of the world, still are not able to command enough income to support themselves (and families for those married) using their writing skills.
