The wings of the Serpent, is a play in development, I  have now completed my second draft. Which I am quite and honestly curious to hear it been read out aloud. I have found three professional actors who are willing to help me out even though I am not paying them, it saddens me that no one funds this kind of developments, this kinds of attributes no organisation that honestly develop only playwrights.

“If you want to be a writer, make writing your habit.”~ Unknown.

Gosh! I have been on twitter for some time and I start comparing my country to other developed countries…

Any way… I promised the actors a mean Chicken casserole…and a good wine.

Hahaha true story!

It is our reality, a freelancer’s reality.

However, I will have great contributors to my feedback session, I have invited friends who are my colleagues, and artist I truly admire, who will sit on my sofa and sip white or red wine while listening to my new work being read. I am excited about that, I have such support in the industry.

It is important to me, that I bring in people who believe in quality, development and growth. And also It is quite crucial that every space becomes a safe space both for the playwright and the audience.  Something I have learned at the African Women Playwright Network Symposium in CapeTown.  I believe in making that clear, because us artists we are sensitive with our work especially,  freshly baked work.
