The Jan Rabie and Marjorie Wallace Writers’ Scholarship has so far given eight authors the opportunity to work undisturbed on their books. Bookworm Bibi Slippers talks to Nathan Trantraal, whose graphic novel Die man wattie kinnes vang appeared earlier this year, and Lynthia Julius, who is this year’s scholarship holder and has started work on her first novel. They discuss the relief, opportunities, struggles and pressure associated with receiving a major scholarship.
