Abafundi Babungaza Ababhali

By Nancy V

Uyawazi lowo muzwa omnandi wokusonga encwadini, uyinuke, ubambe ingubo yokulala nenkomishi yetiye efudumele bese ukhukhuleka uye emazwini encwadi? Ukweleta lowo muzwa kumbhali. Uma uke wafuna ukugubha umbhali, uNovemba 1 usuku. Usuku Lukazwelonke Lwababhali luqashelwa abafundi bezincwadi ezweni lonke njengosuku lokugubha ukuzikhandla kombhali omthandayo.

Ohambweni lokucwila ebhukwini, akuvamile ukuthi sihlabe ikhefu ukuze sivume wonke umsebenzi onzima owenziwe kuyo. Izinyembezi, ebusuku kakhulu, ukuzethemba, nokubhala kabusha okungapheli konke kuyizingxenye zalokho okudingekayo ukuze ube umbhali. Futhi lelo kuphela ithiphu langempela le-iceberg yesitaki sencwadi.

Ngisho ngoba ngingumbhali. Phakathi nalolu bhubhane, ngenkathi abaningi befunda ukubhaka isinkwa, ikhono engalithola eminyakeni eminingi edlule, ngiyabonga, ngibe nethuba lokuchitha isikhathi ngithuthukisa uthando lwami lokubhala futhi ngashicilela izincwadi ezimbili. Ukungibhalela kufana nesikhathi sokuhamba. Ngithola ukuhlola imihlaba engiyenzile ekhanda lami, noma ngiphinde ngivakashele izindawo zesikhathi sami esidlule. Ngithola ukuletha izingcezu zaleyo mihlaba empilweni. Ngibe nezinsuku zokuhlala ne-laptop yami amahora amaningi phambi kwefasitela lami. Ezinye izinsuku zazintanta futhi inkomishi yami yekhofi yayibanda ngomzuzu njengoba ngithayipha. Kwezinye izinsuku, ngibhale umusho owodwa onamandla ngabe sengisuka kude ne-laptop yami amasonto.

Kumbhali, umhlaba wonke uyimenyu yokuqamba. Ngikholwa kakhulu ukuthi sonke singabalindi, ikakhulukazi abathandi bezincwadi. Sifuna izindaba ezingashiwongo ekhasini ngalinye. Ngifuna ugqozi ohlwini lwami oluhlala lukhula lwababhali abayizintandokazi. Ngangingazibizi njalo ngombhali. Ngicabanga ukuthi ngisakhula ngangigxile kakhulu ezimisweni zomphakathi zalokho okufanele ngibe yikho, nombhali wayengekho ohlwini lwabo. Kwaze kwaba yilapho ngihlala phambili e-Newman Center for the Performing Arts e-Denver ngobusuku bangoNovemba obubandayo, obuneqhwa. Ngiphethe izincwadi ezimbili ezikhetheke kakhulu ezandleni zami, ngalalela ababhali. Ngabuka njengoba befunda izindaba zabo nendlela ukucwayiza kwawo wonke amagama kwakubonakala kukhanyisa ukuphila kwabo. Ngazizwa ngiwukuphela komuntu egumbini lapho u-Julia Alvarez ohlonishwayo kanye no-Kali Fajardo-Astine, uzakwethu wakwa-Denverite nombhali ka-Sabrina no-Corina owawina indondo, bexoxa ngohambo lwababhali babo. UJulia wangikhipha umoya lapho ethi, “uma usungumfundi, uyabona ukuthi kunendaba eyodwa kuphela ongazange uyifunde: iyodwa kuphela ongayixoxa.” Ngabona ukuthi isibindi engangisidinga ukuze ngibhale indaba yami sasikhona, ngalawo mazwi. Ngakho, ngakusasa ngaqala ukubhala incwadi yami. Ngayibeka izinyanga ezimbalwa futhi njengoba ubhubhane luthatha izinto eziningi kithi kanye nezaba zami zesikhathi, ngathola isikhathi sokuhlala futhi ngiqedele inkumbulo yami.

Manje, izincwadi zami sezingenile ohlwini lwabadayiswa kakhulu, futhi kusukela ezingxoxweni nabafundi abaningi, ziguqule izimpilo. Impela kwayishintsha impilo yami ukubhala zombili lezi zincwadi. Ngicabanga ukuthi ababhali abaningi abagujwayo bazizwe ngendlela efanayo.

Bungaza ababhali ngokuthenga izincwadi ezitolo zasendaweni yangakini. Izintandokazi zami yi-West Side Books ne-Tattered Cover. Bhala ukubuyekezwa, ukuncoma kubangani bakho nabathandekayo. Sinenqwaba yezincwadi ezizungeze ikhaya lethu lezindaba okufanele zixoxelwe. Imuphi umhlaba ozocwila kuwo namuhla? Imuphi umbhali ozomgubha?
