Ndlela: A Tragic Figure of Zululand

Thanks for the link penderis. The images I have used are free for commercial use, but the article you linked to makes a persuasive point about accrediting even free images, advice I am sure I will follow. The text was, of course, written by me. It consists mostly of what I remembered from my studies, and from a life-long interest in history, and South African history in particular, but naturally I had to do some fact checking, date checking, and looking up Zulu and Swazi names. I might have gone to town and done a full-fledged essay with links to the conflicting historical sources, but this was originally meant to be a quick tidy little post about Ndlela, though it ballooned out of all proportion as the writing went on. I'm glad you enjoyed the article, and thanks for your continued support!

It definitely helps that you know the subject so well, maintaining the element of storytelling that you might not have if you were not already acquainted with most of the facts.

If you are on discord and wish to join a few communities let me know, I don't remember if I gave you the servers last time. Would help to promote your writing, and maybe just general chat with others in the community.

P.S not sure if you get notifications via busy but I have nominated you for this weeks comedyopenmic there are a few days left but you can join next week also just follow @comedyopenmic to see when it starts. you can see the rules Rules HERE and the intro post Intro Next week will be round 6, so can keep an eye out for that. Also if ever you have questions let me know , there are plenty discords you can join if you wish to just chat with the people on here.

Thanks Penderis, you did give me the servers. I do not get notifications, and I have been terribly busy recently, and, being a Catholic, am likely to remain so until the Easter weekend has passed. Thanks for the nomination, perhaps I will find time to participate in the future. I will make a Discord account soon.

Ok cool, no pressure, was just not sure. As for notifications, you can try busy with your posting key then that might help. All and all have a good time. Keep well :)

You keep well too, and enjoy the long weekend!
