This is the logo for my self-publishing company, Thank You Books. My name is a derivative of the gratitude concept in the Sesotho/Setswana/Sepedi language group (lebohang, relebogile, olebogeng, etcetera). I feel a deep gratitude for the life I have and continue to create; from school life to poetry life to freelance shooting-my-shot life and books have essentially given that to me. I am thankful to every writer who has written something (both inside & outside books) that has illuminated my path and has changed my life. And, I am immensely grateful to my mama and the box set of Poldy books that have been a force throughout my whole childhood. The icon consists of a ballet/book skirt because I feel that it’s important to pay homage to 14 years of rigorous classical and contemporary dance training because of how they have made me who I am. I am thrilled for this new chapter and all of the beautiful stories that I am going to put into the world.
Designers: Masego Morulane (illustrator of my dreams too) and Sibusiso Mkhwanazi.

Thank you to my friends, who always help me to make up my mind.
