Friday 17 May, 11:00 – 12:00 Having your novel adapted for film or
TV sounds like heaven but it can be hell if you don’t retain
control. Irish romance sensation Cecelia Ahern (PS, I Love You) and SA
crime pioneer Angela Makholwa – whose Red Ink is out on Showmax –
swap notes on the art of crafting your own screen adaptation. Literary
agent Aoife Lennon Ritchie throws the curveballs. Enter Here

THE POST-PATRIARCHY Friday 17 May, 13:00 - 14:00 How are contemporary
queer novelists dramatising family, childhood and parenthood? The
three books by the panellists feature queer male protagonists who are
fathers or sons, or both. Koketso Sachane connects the dots with S.J.
Naudé (Of Fathers and Fugitives), Wisani Mushwana (A Soft Landing)
and Alistair Mackay (The Child). Enter Here

DJINNS AND TONICS Friday 17 May, 16:00 – 17:00 Michele Magwood hosts
three ghost friendly writers: Shubnum Khan (The Lost Love of Akbar
Manzil), Morabo Morojele (Three Egg Dilemma) and Craig Higginson (The
Ghost of Sam Webster). These are very different novels, but all three
yield uncanny returns… Enter Here

BODIES OF EVIDENCE Saturday 18 May, 13:00 – 14:00 Mike Nicol listens
to the whispers of the dead with forensic pathologist Hestelle van
Staden (Blood Has a Voice) and Nigerian crime novelist Femi Kayode

spatter of art? Enter Here

IT COULD BE WORSE Saturday 18 May, 13:00 – 14:00 Speculative fiction
is a weapon of social commentary, satire and catharsis, extrapolating
emerging realities into surreal futures. Alma-Nalisha Cele dissects
the power of the form with worldbuilders Alistair Mackay (It Doesn’t
Have to Be This Way), Morabo Morojele (Three Egg Dilemma) and Sven
Axelrad (God’s Pocket). Enter Here

IN THE THIRST PERSON Saturday 18 May, 14:30 – 15:30 Having good sex
is apparently easier than writing good sex scenes. But that’s not
rocket science, surely? Letlhogonolo Mokgoroane juggles the ins and
outs of high-end lit smut with Busisekile Khumalo (Sunshine and
Shadows), Joy Watson (The Other Me) Enter Here

RED INK ON SCREEN Saturday 18 May, 16:00 – 17:00 Angela Makholwa and
actress Nqobile Nunu Khumalo talk to Mohale Mashigo about the TV
adaptation by Showmax of Red Ink, Makholwa’s hit thriller about a
writer’s entanglement with a serial killer. The sequel, The Reed
Dance Stalker, resumes the terrifying story. Is Napoleon Dingiswayo
really dead, as the C-Max prison authorities claim? And when the news
imitates fiction, do writers and actors return the favour? Enter Here

podcasting duo (Alma-Nalisha Cele & Letlhogonolo Mokgoroane) as they

POSITIVE FORCE Sunday 19 May, 11:30 – 12:30 Diagnosed with HIV in
2013, Nozibele Qamngana-Mayaba (Positively Me: Daring to Live and Love
Beyond HIV) kept her secret from her staunch Christian family and
faced rejection from her then partner. Seven years later, she decided

tells Alma-Nalisha Cele about her mission to inspire and engage. Enter

talks to Adam Welz (The End of Eden) and Sandra Swart (The Lion’s
