Our Story

Thando Writing is a writing organisation that strives to increase participation in literature, founded by the poet and author Sydney Conteh.


The main goal for Thando Writing is to inspire a love for writing, whether that may be poetry, short stories and more; Thando Writing aspires to introduce more people into the publishing world, as everyone has a message and the voice of those people should be listened and be expressed freely.


Thando Writing works closely with schools and other organisations from all around the world to directly run workshops (online and in person).


Private workshops are also available upon request.
