edit data

Chanette Paul word rond en bont groot. Sy woon nege skole by, studeer aan vyf universiteite en het al in sewe provinsies gebly. Haar eerste verhaal waarvoor sy betaling ontvang het, is ‘n sprokie wat sy op sestienjarige ouderdom geskryf het en op Siembamba voorgelees is. Die tweede, ‘n kortverhaal, is in haar universiteitsjare in Huisgenoot gepubliseer.
Eers twintig jaar later, in 1995, gee sy weer aandag aan haar skryfwerk. Sedertdien het ‘n verskeidenheid verhale en humoristiese artikels in tydskrifte verskyn asook in die omgewing van 50 boeke in verskillende genres.

Lira: Proestukkie

[image error]

Vooraf

Saterdag 2 Desember, Benoni

Lira

Natgesweet, stowwerig en moerig. Dis hoe Lira voel toe die vrou en die twee meisiekinders laggend die oudhedewinkel binnegestap kom, inkopiesakke in die hand.

Natgesweet omdat dit bloedig warm buite is en sy so pas die soveelste boks uit Frank se paneelwa moes indra terwyl hy inventarisse opstel in sy lugverkoelde kantoor.

Quotes by Chanette Paul (?)

“Jy maak niemand moedswillig seer nie. Jy kom niemand doelbewus te na nie. Jy gun mense om te wees wat en wie hulle is solank hulle jou nie moedswillig seermaak of te na kom nie. Jy vergewe hulle as hulle dit wel gedoen het en insien dat hulle drooggemaak het. As hulle dit nie insien nie, sny jy hulle gewoon uit jou lewe. Meet ‘n bietjie jouself, jou familie, jou gemeente daaraan en kyk hoe vaar jou bende. (Nan aan Gideon)”
