About
In the speculative fiction story Minerva's Oath, set in the Middle Ages, Minerva and her husband are deities who have lived amongst humans on different continents for millennia, and have witnessed the rise and fall of some of the greatest civilizations in history. The two have never been apart and have been each other's pillar since the days of Alkebulan. A tragedy occurs, and now Minerva has to help the same Yudanians who betrayed her usher in the Renaissance Age. Will she have the strength to carry her oath through? In the flash fiction story, The Beyond Connection, budding creative Kabelo decides he's not going to let his condition and past relationship experiences define how he lives his life. He vows to open up to more social interactions. Unbeknownst to him, he receives more than he bargained for. In the short fiction story, The Beyond Connection 2, Wedu is a production artist who's building the life he desires with his partner, Patience. Wedu soon learns that some traumas seldom remain buried for long. Terrified of losing Patience, he seeks out as much help as he can but the help that seems as though it'll be the one he needs finds him. Will he receive the help he needs in time to save his relationship? Laone J. Mangwa (Also, LJ Mangwa) is a Motswana writer, author and occasional spoken word poet from Botswana that is fascinated with how life mimics art and vice versa. Because he is passionate about creative self-expression, he has realized that finding an outlet for it is extremely important and doing so as something greater than a hobby, just as important. Thus, all the work he does is centered on that, as well as collaboration to bring that expression to fruition. As a multi-dimensional being that also regards himself as a conduit, one of the avenues he utilizes to express himself is writing. He writes because he can't always have conversations with himself. That gets weird to people after a while (unfortunately). Also because there are tales that harbor so much inspirational energy that they choose to implode through outward expression! Some of his works have been published in Kalahari Review and IBUA Journal. He has authored mutliple eBooks that include Chronicles of an Unbound Traveler, Tellings from The Ethers and The Great Mystery, all of which are available everywhere for digital download.Instagram: @lj_writes9
