I'm honored to have been given a spotlight by @theACGuild. It was a fun conversation in which I elaborated with detail what it means to be a poet and what poetry means to me. Do have a read. And happy weekends!

The year has come to an end and we have curated a list of some of the best pieces published on the April Centaur Network. All of our pieces are selected carefully and all of them are brilliant. But some of them stood out. Below are the best short stories we published in no order.
These Walls by Enyinna Nnabuihe is a richly imagined story. It intersects memory, conflict and personal testimony, with evocative prose that places readers inside both the psychological and political realms of its characters.
