1. Let me re-introduce myself. My name is Carl Terver, founder and editor of the literary magazine, @Afapinen (afapinen.com) Starting today, I shall begin a 100-day of funding campaign for my magazine. 2. Afapinen began publication since 2021, with great success so far. I have published over 100 critical essays, some of which made it to “Best Essays of the Year” lists. Many of our writers debuted in Afapinen and their experience from this has taken them further in their careers. This keys into my vision “to platform new voices in critical writing on visual art, literature, and music, in defining a new age.” 3. So far, I have achieved this from pocket. But one of the major problems facing literary magazines, especially in the continent, is the lack of funding. I, too, suffer the same fate. 4. I am doing this funding campaign so that “I don’t go home,” but go harder—to deliver better, and to expand my magazine’s potential and vision. If you see this on your timeline, whether you are into arts or not, this is about supporting a Nigerian dream. It may be difficult to understand what a literary magazine does in the larger society, but it matters so much in the long run. We document history. 5. Support your local cultural entrepreneurs.
