Rudzani Floyd Musekwa is Journalism and Media studies graduate from a sort of Ivy League Journalism School who believes that good writers don’t necessarily work for newspapers or magazines because good writers sometimes just can’t stand editors and their usually bored subs (with all due respect).

Good writers are rugged men like Chris Brewer who say what’s on their minds with disciplined wit.

Rudzani has never thought or dreamt of doing any other thing for a living that didn’t involve writing or saying words without fear. He enjoys hate mail than flattery comments from readers because he believes that getting people to talk about their frustrations is most therapeutic. He has this idea that he is a doctor of sorts because of this.

Even though he’s been to three top universities Rudzani still believes in learning more, especially about journalism and media studies – his biggest passion and only thing he’s ever read for.

After having had his opinions ignored before they were even read by some Sunday newspaper that pretends to be for freedom of expression, he heeded Michael Trapido’s call and asked to contribute for NewsTime, then known as the Richmark Sentinel.

Never in a million years did he think that he would be on first name terms with David Bullard, a man he read so religiously until that fateful day (you all know which one). Though he doesn’t agree with some of the things that Bullard says or writes, Rudzani still believes that there’s no better writer in terms of saying that which is hard to say.

Rudzani goes with the view that a good writer doesn't take pride in being liked by all, but rather he/she takes absolute pride in being read by many.

Rudzani left the weirdly hot Limpopo Province a few years ago to pursue his passion (journalism) and is today based in the colonial-looking university town of Grahamstown and writes to keep sane, and is also raising a baby boy named completely after him. What a joy.
