New Topic: Why do African writers always stick to stories about Africa and the Village life? Most of those who really try their hands out on new things fail woefully! Why is this so? A writer should be able to adapt his writing to any environment! Besides, I've got a new book out now. You can get half of it for free at www.lulu.com/freedownloads

I hardly see famous foreign authors writing outside their own Western culture. What better way to propagate our culture than to primarily write about it. Other cultures have gotten enough exposure, why shouldn't we continuously reveal ours?

Stillwater, I never said we shouldn't continously reveal ourselves, but we can do it better, can't we?

I don't agree when you say most people who try new things fail woefully at it. And, all writers have their comfort zone. Let them stay there.
