Hey there!

So happy you’ve come to join us for another edition of “Meet the Blogger”, a platform where I introduce you to new and interesting individuals who are bloggers, just like me, from all over the world.

If you missed the last interview, catch it right here.

Today I’d like to introduce you to this vibrant young lady named Zinhle Sithole. She is a triple threat as she is a copywriter, blogger, and aspiring author. Her blog, titled “Diary of An Antisocial Goddess” caters to anyone and everyone as she writes about everything and anything.

Zinhle aspires to change the world one word at a time. Let’s delve a little deeper into this young lady…

What inspires you to write/blog and where do you get your ideas from?

Writing has always been my life, what inspires me to keep on is that I know the power words have and if they saved me in my worst time I want to be able to do the same for other people as well. I get my ideas from everyone and everything around me, it can be through coming across an interesting painting or picture or an argument between two people.

What is your writing process, do blog posts come easily to you or do you spend lots of time on each one?

My writing process goes as follows: I come up with a topic, prewrite, gather evidence and information, organise it, draft, revise my work then proofread it…😁 It depends on the particular post but usually, it comes easily because I thoroughly do my research.

How would you describe yourself?

I am an introverted self-aware bookworm who loves writing, reading and eating 😂

What is your biggest fear?

Dying without having fulfilled my purpose.

How do you de-stress after a long day?

I read a book I like while listening to the fam joking around about random stuff.

What’s your favourite movie?

Definitely Lucy. I just can’t get over how potent the movie is!

What is your day job and what is your favourite thing about it?

I’m a copywriter and my favourite thing is just coming up with interesting and creative ways to market a certain product/service by capturing the audience through playing with different words.

What do you do to keep fit?

I am a super lazy couch potato but luckily my body is like a balloon so if I eat more it gets bigger, if I eat less it gets thinner.

What is your favourite book?

This is sooo hard… uhm I think between Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon and The Secret by Ronda Byrne… Haha and every book by Nicholas Sparks and… Okay okay, I have many favourites…

What is the most difficult challenge you’ve ever had to overcome and how did you overcome it?

Dealing with depression is one of the toughest things I’ve ever had to go through… How I dealt with it was really interesting even to me. I remember coming back home after putting on a this “everything is good” mask around people for the majority of the day and I just broke down the moment I stepped inside the house. I didn’t even know why I was crying but next thing I found myself with a pen and a book in my hand, writing poetry. Super crazy! And writing helped me overcome depression.

And that’s a wrap!

A huge thank you Zinhle for taking the time to join us on the blog today. It is greatly appreciated. Let me know when you publish that book so I can check it out.
