@saritafrutilla @impephop @IF_SouthAfrica "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.

[impepho press @impephop]

It is the story of finding one's voice amidst inherited violence, and the importance of art and creativity in that process.
