As an upcoming journalist it is always good to listen to succesful journalists talking about their experiences, the ups and downs , the good and the bad. “Never pretend to know everything, ask!”, said Margaret Van Klemperer at the 18th annual Time Of The Writter’s festival held at City Campus, Durban University of Technology.

“Being a journalist is a hard job and requires a lot of reading, read even when it is boring”added Klemperer. As Charles Johns once siad “Readers are leaders”. One of the duties that comes with being a journalist is to inform the public. How does one even come close to achieving that goal without reading consistently?

Time of the writter’s three honorable guests ; Futhi Ntshingila , Margaret Van Klemperer and Mzilikazi Wa Afrika emphasized that education in this industry is vital, as it helps you to understand journalism on another level. Futhi Ntshingila , investigative journalist and author of Do Not Go Gentle said that you should be yourself at all times and never doubt your strength as a writter. With all the competition in the industry , wanting your story to make it to the front page, journalists may end up compromising a lot.

Durban University of Technology’s journalism students got a chance to ask the guests questions afterwards and they expressed their views about the time of the wirtter’s festival.

“I’m very grateful for this opportunity, to be visited by such amazing guests and i will put into practise all that they have taught us”, Tankiso Mothibe a second year journalism student.

“time of the writter’s festival was very helpful to as aspiring writter, it sort of gave me an idea of the world that i’m in love with but know not much about, if i may say”, Zama Andisa Ngcoya.
