In August, The Seed Thief enjoyed three launches – at Kalk Bay books in Cape Town’s south peninsula, at Love Books in Melville, Johannesburg, and at The Book Lounge in Cape Town city centre. All three were packed with friends old and new.

My thanks to everyone who came and engaged with me and my book. A special thanks to Justin Fox, Michele Magwood and Henriette Rose-Innes, who took time out to be in conversation with me and gently ‘interrogate’ my book at the three events. Their questions were insightful and the conversations were always lively!
