KwaChirere now open

Memory Chirere has opened a blog. Most know him as a short fiction writer from Zimbabwe, who sometimes travels to places like Oxford University to present papers on Dambudzo Marechera, or to Namibia to lecture on poetry. He is also a professor of literature and creative writing at the University of Zimbabwe, and, in addition to what he calls his "occasional" short fiction writing, he is a poet, a critic (one of the best reviewers in Zimbabwean literature), and a voracious reader of world literature. He is, in short, a good friend of mine.

I am happy that he now has a blog, a site that might turn out to be a place for many to hang out.... Check it out at KwaChirere and read the flash fiction piece he posted.
