Our readers would like to meet and know you. Who is Nnenna Ihebom?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Nnenna Ihebom is a native of Ubakuru Mbieri in Mbaitoli Local government Area of Imo state. She is married to Sabastine Ihebom of Umuomi Uzoagba in Ikeduru Local government Area of Imo state. She is a health worker who uses her spare time to string words together.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>You are famed writing in Igbo. How did you discover your niche?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I was inspired by Prof. Anele Barnabas Chukwuezi and Dr. Chidi Osuagwu, who kept emphasizing the need for Igbo people to write in their language. Again, from childhood, I learnt how to read Igbo fluently from my church experience, using the Igbo Bible. So Igbo was not scary at all. Another factor is that I spent my formative years in the village, so I got a firm grip of the Igbo language. When I developed the passion to write in Igbo, it was not too difficult to start.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Can you share with us your works published in Igbo? Do you have any unpublished work? What is holding you back from publishing?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I have Odogwu Be Anyi, Omaricha(abu umuaka) Igirigi Ututu, Akamkpo Chinedu, Mkpanaka Igbo, Egwu a gwara ogwa and Okowata (Igbo dictionary). Yes, there are many others that are waiting to be published. Money <em>palava <\/em>is the reason why they are not yet published.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Does writing energize or exhaust you? <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It energizes me. It makes me come alive.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>How many hours a day do you write? <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is not uniform. I think it depends on many factors including my mood, how excited I am about the subject matter in question and how my schedule is.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What period of the day do you write better?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Early morning and late night.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>. <strong>How do you select the names of your characters?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There is no special method of selecting the names of characters. Sometimes the names are abstract especially in writing in English. At other times, they are significant and match the attributes of the character, especially in Igbo stories.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What was your hardest scene to write?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There have been very hard scenes and chapters but there is one that comes to mind. Scene twelve of my play,\u00a0<em>Folly is a Dance.<\/em>\u00a0It was really challenging and I am glad it turned out well.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What are your favourite literary journals?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>ANA Review, A\u00d1U, Whelan Research Academy journals.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What is your favourite childhood book?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>African Child by Camara Laye,\u00a0This is Our Chance by Ene Henshaw.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>How long on average does it take you to write a book? <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Again, it depends on many factors but generally, it can take between two months and five months to finish putting down the story. Of course that is a long way from finishing the book.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Do you think it&#8217;s better to be original or to deliver to readers what they want?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course it is better to be original.\u00a0 A writer has a duty to be loyal to his muse and his conscience at all times. I think it is commercial writers that only think of what the readers want at all times.\u00a0 It is good to consider what is in vogue but it is more important to use your art to teach and remind society of the right path as you perceive it.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>If you could tell your younger writing-self anything, what would that be?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Well, I would tell her to pay more attention to her people\u2019s history; to grab as much as she could from the old people around. I would tell her to pay less heed to alien dogma aimed at distorting the views of young people about who they are.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What is your favourite under-appreciated novel?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Lunar Princess<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What other authors help you become a better writer?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>My training as a writer came from some young writers and an online writers\u2019 forum \u2013 Fanstory. These young writers include Chidozie Chukwubuike, Chuks Oluigbo and Nwokedi Sylvester. We are still working together to help each other do better.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What was the first book that moved you to tears? <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Things Fall Apart<\/p>\n<!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 1.7.8 -->\n<div class=\"quads-location quads-ad2\" id=\"quads-ad2\" style=\"float:none;margin:0px;\">\n<script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<script>\r\n  (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({\r\n    google_ad_client: \"ca-pub-5983616716487778\",\r\n    enable_page_level_ads: true\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What are common traps for aspiring writers? And what is your advice to them in view of the fact that writing doesn&#8217;t yield immediate financial reward?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One major trap that young writers may be exposed to is plagiarism. It is not worthwhile at all and can ruin everything for you. If you do not have the talent or calling, do not force it. Again, writing in Nigeria is not a goldmine and expecting quick cash is self-delusion.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>How do you manage the busy literary schedule with the very tasking home front?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I try to manage my time well. Actually, if we get rid of certain habits we are used to, we can find enough time to do all we want to do in a day.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What promoted you to write the Igbo dictionary?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Passion. I just caught this consuming zeal to help save the Igbo language from extinction and started the work. It started with the book, <em>Mkpanaka Igbo<\/em>, which I published in 2014. It has a glossary of Igbo words and meanings at the back. I decided to expand it into a full monolingual dictionary.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Our indigenous languages are fast going into extinction. What&#8217;s the role of writers in saving this ugly situation?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Well, writers should write in these indigenous languages. The government must get responsible in this direction. Writer should invest their time, intellect and craft while the government invests money into promoting these endangered languages.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Do you think that government is doing enough to encourage writers?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>No, the government has neglected writers for far too long. It is a painful truth that the government and corporate bodies\u00a0remember to celebrate a writer only after another country in the Western world has celebrated him or her. Nigeria cannot grow without her writers.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>If you didn&#8217;t write, what other passion of yours would you promote?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I love singing and the dramatic arts among other passions<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What is the most unethical practice in the publishing industry?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Plagiarism, piracy and copyright violations<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What literary pilgrimages have you gone on? <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I was part of the tours in celebration of Chinua Achebe\u2019 Things Fall Apart at 50.
