I was at home, having a glass of wine and decided why not just start writing the book now.
I always knew I was going to write a book but I never knew what exactly. I wanted it to appeal to someone on a social grant, to someone in an executive office. I’m a storyteller – I’d rather someone talk to me about the characters in my books than my style of writing. I decided simple writing so everyone could read them. My aim with the book was just to have simple writing I know how to write formally for newspaper. When I became aware that there were just few books available on South African people, our food, our names, our places and our stories is when I appreciated why people can relate. I saw the gap once my books became successful. Did you feel there was a need for books like the Hlomu series?
