Biographie de Gavin Pienaar
Gavin Pienaar, a Civil Engineering Technician with a deep passion for writing and reading, hails from Newcastle, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Gavin's journey has been profoundly influenced by the guiding hand of his great-grandmother. Growing up amidst the trials and tribulations of crime and violence within the South African Coloured community, he has drawn upon these experiences to shape the tragic tale that unfolds within the pages of his manuscript, Drifting, Dreaming, Dying.
It is his great-grandmother who bestowed upon him the encouragement to explore the realms of literature and pour his emotions onto paper. Supported by his loving spouse, Ivy, and their daughters, Bridget (whose courageous battle against breast cancer ended in her untimely passing) and Rachel, Gavin took his first steps as an author in 2018. With dedication and perseverance, he devoted his weekends to penning his debut novel, Drifting, Dreaming, Dying.
