She will be interviewed by the publisher of the Nigeria editions of her books, Dr Eghosa Imasuen, on 26th November 2022, in “a conversation that will focus on her journey within the Creative Writing space, what it took to get to where she is and what more she looks forward to.”

Dr Imasuen said, “My session with Ms Adichie will provide writers, editors and all those seeking careers in the creative writing space with insight into her personal journey and how any of them can contribute to changing African narratives.”

Chimamanda publishers, Narrative Landscape Press, in collaboration with the Society of Book and Magazine Editors, and the Jalada Africa Collective will be facilitating a creative writing masterclass at the Creative Africa Nexus Weekend (CANEX WKND) 2022 billed for Abidjan, Cote d’ Ivoire from November 25–27,2022.
