Meet Lara Ayodeji-Akindiji and some of her novel writer achievements: Ways to Inject Suspense into Your Novel : Throw the Spotlight On At Least Two People: This might sound a little obvious, but for goodness sake, don’t make the villain of the piece stand out a mile. Instead, have suspicion fall on at least two, possibly three characters. This will have the effect of your reader not really being sure until the end when the other shoe falls! But, by all means, leave some clues and some red herrings along the way! Make use of the weather to good effect. Thunderclouds brewing overhead often gives the reader the feeling that something is about to happen. A bolt of lightning hitting the night sky, power lines down, a stranger at the door, etc. Think of the last time you watched a horror film; didn’t the weather come into somewhere?

Omolarami gets very excited when it’s time to talk about the daily requirements of her work and you feel her passion radiating through her words. “As a Trainee solicitor I have to cover a minimum of 3 areas of law during my Training Contract. I have covered Litigation, Commercial, Debt, Bankruptcy and Insolvency, Housing/ Property Litigation, Family and child care law. I am extremely lucky at my firm as I get hands on experience and a lot of responsibility which gives me great exposure to the arrears of law and client care. I carry a case load of over 100 files and am personally responsible for them,” she said. Currently, she is at the last stage of becoming qualified onto the Roll of Solicitors. She would eventually like to obtain a Masters Degree, “but would first like to specialise in a particular area of law before I master in it.”
Lara Ayodeji-Akindiji also takes part in various TV programs! Lara Ayodeji-Akindiji is back at it again. It was an honour to be asked to come on TV and talk about Immigration which is such a hot and emotive subject. As I was walking out of my house to make my way to the studio where the interview was to take place I tripped and sprained my ankle. My phone and my mac press powder went flying and landed smack in the middle of the road.
Like any 21st century woman would do I risk life and limb and crawled into the middle of the road to rescue my precious phone and make up before a car ran over them (Ladies I couldn’t save the press powder) but my phone was only had scratch and was fully functioning.
After all that whala, I usually would be like “it’s not that serious” and wobble my pretty behind back into the house. However; a small still voice said to me, “ call an Uber”. I am so glad I did, I got to go on TV and speak on a subject that matters to so many people. Moral of the story, if Plan A does not work, you still have 25 more letters and 364 more days in a year. The devil doesn’t know what to do with someone who does not give up, so make him jobless
Despite her achievements abroad, she hasn’t completely forgotten about home. “I do have desire to return back to Nigeria and practice law there and will be undergoing Christmas and Easter work placements at Lagos firms which will provide me with an in-depth insight of the working dynamics within a Nigerian law firm, Nigerian law and offer a taste of life as a Nigerian lawyer. From there I believe I can make a more educated decision as to whether I should continue my legal aspirations in the UK or in Nigeria.” In addition to that, she coordinates and organises volunteers at the free legal advice centre at Barnet Sure Start, a government funded initiative in West Hendon & Underhill.
