Being a dancing monkey is not always a bad thing... I love dancing and telling stories. I am South African, married to a Namibian and living in Namibia (yes, that small African country that Brangelina made famous). I love culture and history, and I'm trying to find my voice as an author. Stories transport us, magically, to places and times we could never know in this one life. We can meet people and cultures so vastly different from our own that the sense of 'otherness' that perpetuates oppression and fear of the 'other' will be eradicated and the world could live in peace knowing that we all bleed red. Social rant over, let's write!
