‘The workshop [Way of Water], in more ways than one, exceeded my expectations. It was an invitation to introspect, to fill myself up, sit with my feelings – acknowledge them and write from there – without trying to suppress or “suit” them for an audience. This kind of honesty, I learned, is what will fuel my journey as a writer.’ – Limakatso Gwangwa

‘I had a fantastic experience at The Way of Water Writers’ Workshop. It was Very informative, Creative, and catered to both beginners and those who have already started their writing journey. The combination of practical advice and creative exploration provided valuable insights while answering many of my questions.’ – Zonke Ndlangamandla

‘I LOVED this workshop and can highly recommend it to everyone who dreams about writing a children’s book …’ – Cary Davies
