#writerscoffeeclub 3/29. Share one of your writing milestones.
My main milestone came in 2014, with my first collection of short stories, A Killing In The Sun, which some scholars said was the first single-author collection from an African author. It's what ultimately put me on the limelight. Unfortunately, it's South African publisher went out of business, and it went out of print, so today, I revive it via Ododo Press (npub1g8h…mep0)
PS: Honestly, what do you think of the cover?
