Masvingo based female writer and former teacher Tichamupei Comfort Chivore will on June 18 launch her first book titled Zvichatinakira at Lee’s Inn Hotel at 1800 hours.
In an interview with TellZim News, Chivore said she is both excited and nervous at the same time as the book launch is her first individual publication.
“I am actually excited and nervous at the first time as this is my first individual publication and I do not know whether people are going to appreciate the book or not,” said Chivore.
She also added that everyday life experiences inspired her to write the book and also association with street children is also an inspiration towards her writings.
“My inspiration comes from my day to day life because I have been fortunate enough to socialize with children on the streets and I have come to realize that sometimes we are quick to judge them without really getting to know them,” added Chivore.
She also thanked her supportive family and husband who motivates her in her day to day life.
“I am very happy to have a supportive husband who allows me to follow my dreams and have also been getting a lot of encouragement from my family members and other writers around me,” she said.
The book released on March 22 2022 with Progressive Publishers is about a young girl who lost both parents at a tender age and went on to live on the streets in the city of Masvingo.
