Stef Cupido lives in Wellington and is the mother of a twelve-year-old girl. She loves animals and music. 'I'm first of all a writer and then a poet. I also like to draw trees and scenes from nature, but I see myself as an amateur in that regard.' At the moment she's concentrating on writing short stories and poems, and she is especially fond of using the haiku as a form. 'In 2018 when I decided to write full-time, I fell in love with the haiku. I started the collective Falling to introduce poetry in all its forms. The project has been launched this year on Nelson Mandela Day with the Illustrated haiku collage about social distance & corona virus. 'When I received the news that I was chosen for the Kommadagga Workshop, it was such a shock! I was in the internet café and I put my hands to my face out of joy! I kept shaking my head and the people around me must have thought I went totally off my rocker!' Stef wants to discover the stories deep inside her and is grateful for the opportunity to meet other writers and to be able to talk with other people with ink in their blood. 'This project brings me more self-confidence; I don't have to have doubts any longer.'
