✍️ PENPOWER - WHERE STORIES MEET HEARTS, AND AUTHORS MEET THE WORLD!
PenPower Expo 2025 exists to create a meaningful space where authors of various categories, aspiring writers, and readers can gather to celebrate storytelling, faith, and purpose-driven literature. The heart of the Expo is to empower writers to use the pen as a tool of influence — to heal, to teach, to inspire, and to preserve culture through written truth. It is scheduled for this Sunday 23rd November 2025 at Enko Botho in Block 7, from 330pm.
The Expo was birthed from three shared convictions among the organizers: A calling to build a community of Christian authors — where writers feel supported, seen, and strengthened in their gift. A desire to bridge existing gaps in the literary world: between academia and self-taught writers, between authors and readers, and between writers and opportunities. To amplify African stories and languages — especially through translation into Setswana and other indigenous languages, ensuring our narratives remain authentically ours.
The realization by the organizers was “If we don’t create platforms for Christian voices and African stories, we leave the world to be shaped by voices that do not reflect our convictions.” So PenPower Expo became that platform.
Attendees will leave with a) connection: networking with authors, publishers, and creatives, b) clarity: guidance on writing, publishing, and collaboration, c) confidence: inspiration to step into their writing mandate and tell their story, d) resources: access to books, translation possibilities, and literary partnerships, and e) spiritual enrichment: understanding writing as ministry — not just a talent.
