Season's Change is a collection of poetry by Wendy Keran Engela (neé Gloss), who has all the right qualifications, skills and experience to be regarded as a Gothic artist and poet, including being an incorrigible grammar-Nazi, having the prerequisite dark existential outlook, depression, a twisted sense of humor - and having survived at least one (official) suicide attempt.

Wendy - who prefers to be called 'Kay' - began experimenting with poetry at 15, beginning with her first effort Darkness Falls, quickly followed by her second, Tombstone, which resulted in some pretty worried looks from her mother. Since that time, Kay went on to write over 100 more poems (which her parents have never read).

Kay was born in Springs (the town, not actually wearing them) and later grew somewhat taller in a tiny flyspeck on the map called Kriel.

Being the elder (and more homicidal) of two siblings born to the usual two parents, Wendy - who prefers to be called 'Kay' - arrived on this planet approximately six months after her parents tied an untieable knot in front of a small family gathering, and began her love affair with books and reading them, at the tender age of six years.

Despite a youth in which she failed to commit fratricide, one of her most impressive achievements, she says, was to exhaust all the worthwhile reading material in her junior school library, then the high school library (which she helped re-establish) - and ultimately, the public library of her small town's adult section - before the ripe old age of 19!

She's traveled through all nine provinces of South Africa in her lifetime - not entirely by choice - and has lived in Cape Town (Western Cape), Hazyview (Mpumalanga) and presently lurks in a cozy Victorian townhouse in Port Elizabeth (Eastern Cape).
