About the Author

Refiloe Moahloli (refiloemoahloli.com) grew up in Mthatha in the Eastern Cape. As aunt to many nieces and nephews who consider her to be ‘one of them’ due to her modest height, life with them inspires a number of stories floating in her head at any given time. Now a full-time writer, her life is a far cry from former career in the world information systems and corporate telecoms. Refiloe plays hockey, is a keen Instagrammer known as ‘theparanoidartist’ and is a full-time couch coach of South Africa’s cricket teams.

Self-taught illustrator Anja Stoeckigt is the one-woman band behind Paper-tales, creating hand-illustrated decorative paper goods. As a child she would linger in the stationary section of shops and dream about the designs she would create one day. Now she gets to shake these dreams from her hair and turn them into beautiful things. She describes herself as one with ‘an appreciation for the peculiar and the everyday beautiful’.
