Litnet

I am that strangest of anomalies – a matric boy in a prestigious all-boys school who is not interested in playing rugby. I gave it a bash a few years ago, but after my first grazed elbow (I still have nightmares about it now) I quickly realised that it wasn’t the sport for me. In fact, I gave up on sport entirely and focused all my energy on the exceptionally macho art of writing, and not just essays and short stories, but poems! Poems, for heaven’s sake! And dare I say it, I’ve never enjoyed anything more.

So, now, instead of sweating and grunting and mauling, I spend my afternoons writing about anything and everything; and every now and again I write about something else.
