K.A. Mulenga interview

AUTHOR INTERVIEW


A little introduction:

My name is Kalenga Augustine Mulenga aka K.A. Mulenga. My passion is writing. I started writing when I was 10 years old and my passion was reignited by my 11-year-old son. Writing runs in my blood as my late father was a journalist and the first black editor of the Zambia Daily Mail and my late brother was a poet. To date, I have published 17 children's books. They are available on Amazon and also from my website. I love writing children’s books with a positive message and also to make them laugh and entertained. I am a prolific writer.

I have completed my memoir and have started writing short stories.

My short story, Striving To Be Number One won a Creative Writing Contest in April 2021.

Three of my books, Donk and the Stubborn Donkeys, Chuck the Cheetah, and Will and His Best Friend Whale have been # 1 Amazon Bestsellers in different categories.
