My mother has done this suffering for me

"Publishing is a team effort, you are always part of the machinery that promotes and distributes your book. It is a collaborative effort, whether you are self-publishing or not" #TanyaPretorius @impephop

"It's good to have several people proofread, because our eyes get used to fill in the words that we expect to see." @saritafrutilla

"Getting negative comments on your poems does not mean you are a bad writer, does not mean your book doesn’t deserve to be published and does not mean your stories are not good. It is just part of the process!" @saritafrutilla

an evening with impepho press and friends
In the midst of noise, sometimes, all we need is quiet. impepho press present an hour-long vigil of poetic salve, held by vangile gantsho.
It is the story of finding one's voice amidst inherited violence, and the importance of art and creativity in that process.
