Personal Information

  • First Name Nurudeen
  • Last Name Lawal
  • Gender Male
  • Birthday June 26, 1988
  • About Me I work as a Content Editor with a leading publishing company in Nigeria, Literamed Publications Nigeria Limited. My work as a content editor cuts across so many sections: providing/editing contents (product description, promotional/ educational articles, etc.) for the company’s website and numerous social media platforms.

    Due to my versatility, I also take charge of the e-commerce activities on the website; checking for the orders and processing the orders.

    On volunteer level, I work as an Associate Web Editor for Saraba Magazine, a literary magazine aimed at ‘creating unending voices by publishing the finest emerging writers, with a bias for Nigeria, and Africa.’

    On the same (volunteer) level, I also recently took up a Lexicographer job with Yorubaname.com, an online intervention to preserve and document all Yorùbá names in a multimedia format.

    On a personal level, I run an arts and literary blog (www.artsnliterurenews.wordpress.com) where I feature my (and other writers’) stories, essays, and reviews. The blog also features up-to-date news about writing opportunities and other relevant events.

    I have a BA in Literature from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria.

    Presently, I am looking forward to getting opportunities to pursue a postgraduate course in Comparative literature, precisely African and Arabic literature.




  • Hobbies Reading, watching movies/sports, surfing the internet, etc.
