Phindela’s Muses – I write as I see. I write as I feel. I write as I hear.

Phindela’s Muses

I write as I see. I write as I feel. I write as I hear.

Nqobile Ncube

Phindela’s Muses is the pen name of Nqobile Ncube. After much prodding i reluctantly waded into transferring my thoughts to the electronic notebook. I write as I see. I write as I feel. I write as I hear. I prod the deepest vivid image I can conjure and if at least one person derives some good from it then I am a happy man.
