About Me
Kasonde Chongo is my pen name. I've had a life long love affair with literature and words. Introduced to books and comics at an early age by my mother, I credit her for always having a library in our house. In grade two I got locked up in the school library for a few hours at the end of the day. Curled up in the children's section with a Roald Dahl book, I did not hear the Librarian closing up. Unfortunately that day she forgot to come and turn off the lights. At age eleven I tried to write my first novel. It remains unfinished, as have many more over the years. In 2014 I got serious about completing a book. Six rewrites and much editing later here we are.
