You may say that I’m a dreamer by Kendy Mangra

I struggled with picking a story to tell but telling this one felt like I was closing a door to a phase of my life. Not closing it out of shame because a lot of things have happened since the occurrences in the story. So you could say this story was an avenue of reflection for me.

Empty voids and blurry visions by Hlompho Makhetha

It’s a story I’ve never told and seemed like a good place to start excavating myself. I know this is a common experience, but as a child I thought it was standard and when I realized it wasn’t, that all families weren’t like ours, it seems strange, but my identity collapsed. I’d like to share those parts so that there are fewer dark corners for people like me to get lost in. – Chantelle
