A note from the club's president.
In December 2021, all the leaders at Christian Writers and Readers Club decided to organize an in-house short story contest for all our members. Christmas was almost approaching as well as the end of the year... A lot of churches were organizing Christmas carols and almost all our members were active one way or the other with the preparations at their local churches... Because of this, we had to go for our second and last break for the year. But we didn't just want to go like that, we wanted to end the year with something for all of our members and also for our faithful readers and loyal fans on our social media handles, thus, that was how the In-House Short Story Contest came to be.
We organized it on our Facebook page and asked our readers to vote for their best stories, the ones with the highest reactions would emerge as the winner, first and second runner-up.
Before and during the contest, we were able to put out several broadcasts on Facebook, WhatsApp, Wattpad and other social media handles... By the time the contest was over, everything was successful... Praise Abraham emerged as the winner, Oremodu Bukunola was the first runner-up while Faith Ijiga was the second runner-up.
Because we are always looking for new ways to share the gospel with our contents, we mapped out a lot of plans for the club this year, and that includes the publication of this book you are currently reading.
Towards the end of October 2022, our first magazine which will contain our anthologies on the End Times will be published, watch out for it.
Eight people entered the contest, but because of some obvious reasons, we published six of them...
But you can visit our Facebook page to read the entire short stories for that contest and including other works published by our members.
As you read this book, My prayer is that you will enjoy the entertainment and also that the stories will speak directly to your heart.
~Aquila Kyeng F: CWRC president.
