    “Where your talents and the world's needs cross, there lies your vocation.” — Aristotle As a woman of many talents, I pride myself in the ability to cultivate the written word into something truly heart-wrenching and timeless. My vocation lies in poetry, growing writers to their fullest potential, and making sure that even the smallest works look and feel monumental to the consumer. I run a Johannesburg-based publishing company called Chasing Dreams Publishing, having edited, developed and published an array of South African literature under our brand and independently. I have written copy for brands such as Writer's Bloc International, featured as a Ghost Writer for a locally acclaimed Young Adult Fantasy book series, as well as made guest appearances in online productions such as the Hear My Voice Poetry Relief Fund, the We Are Becoming More Than Enough web series, as well as taken a lead role in the Appreciate A Mosali documentary now recognized at the Rapid Lion International Film Festival. All of these opportunities were presented to me based entirely on my writing, my cultivation of the arts as well as my interconnectivity with humanity. It would be an honour and a privilege to assist you in bringing your ideas and your writing to fruition. Sasta
