Lucky Jefferson has recently announced the finalists of its’ 2nd 2024 poetry and prose annual contest.

An award-winning literary journal that generates interactive conversations around poetry and art by reforming the way journals are produced and shared. Lucky Jefferson features poets and writers who have never been published, marginalized perspectives, and those who sought to pursue writing later in life.

Chaired by the esteemed head of jury, Lisa Low, this year’s contest received an impressive number of submissions. After careful consideration, a total of 24 amazing writers were selected as finalists!

Among them are Nigerian poets Chinemerem Prince Nwankwo and Nwodo Chukwu Divine. Nwankwo, a rising literary talent, is celebrated for his evocative poetry and poignant storytelling, for his piece “Untitled” featured on Rough Cut Press. This experimental work is a dreamlike reflection on loss and pain, exploring themes of daily inner conflict and the delicate line between life and death.

Nwodo Chukwu Divine is an experienced academic writer dedicated to supporting Postgraduate (PGD) students by delivering exceptional writing services tailored to their research and coursework needs. As the Chief Editor of Akpata Magazine, Divine leverages his expertise in SEO and content strategy to enhance the impact and clarity of all editorial projects. A graduate of English and Literature from the University of Benin, he brings a strong foundation in language and storytelling to his work.

Congratulations Nwankwo and Divine on this well deserved win!
