Super excited and happy to share that my first fiction story has been published by @KaravanPress in this year’s anthology!
Copies are hot off the press and will be available in South African bookstores (and I’ll find out about online).
Yay!!!

This is special beyond simple words, but I want to pause to acknowledge this moment: Nadine Gordimer's short stories brought me to South Africa in 2004. Dawn Garisch's stories made me want to become a publisher. And now this recognition. The stars have aligned. Thank you.
