\u201cSy maak toe \u2019n totale boggerop van die pannekoektafel. Vir weke skinder die tannies agter haar rug oor die klein wins wat hulle tafel gemaak het, vir die eerste keer sedert die gemeente se stigting. \u2019n Predikantsvrou wat nie pannekoek kan bak nie. Verbeel jou.\u201d (bl. 26).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rencia van Blerk se Afdraai na Annabel<\/em> <\/span>is \u2019n indrukwekkende debuutroman oor universele temas sonder om voorspelbaar te wees. Dit is \u2019n stilistiese les en \u2019n inspirasie vir enige aspirantskrywer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00f3 beskryf Gert Hanekom, \u2019n dosent in Afrikaans aan die Fakulteit Opvoedkunde by die Sol Plaatje-universiteit (SPU) in Kimberley, di\u00e9 eerste boek van Van Blerk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hanekom was vroe\u00ebr in Mei die gespreksleier tydens die boekbekendstelling by die SPU waar Van Blerk \u2019n aflosdosent in Afrikaans aan dieselfde fakulteit is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfrikaans kan hom maklik tot soetsappigheid verleen, en Rencia kry dit baie goed reg om dit te vermy,\u201d s\u00ea Hanekom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afdraai na Annabel<\/em><\/span> is op 24 Maart tydens die Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees (KKNK) in Oudtshoorn by The Beans Caf\u00e9 deur Turksvy Uitgewers bekendgestel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van Blerk het di\u00e9 debuutroman aan die einde van 2021 voltooi as deel van die afhandeling van \u2019n MA-graad in Kreatiewe Skryfkuns aan die Universiteit van die Vrystaat (UV). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Met die voltooiing hiervan was sy vasbeslote om dit te publiseer, maar gedurende 2022, as waarnemende hoof aan die Kimberley Girls\u2019 High School (KGHS), het sy nie daarby uitgekom nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit was eers in 2023 dat sy kans gekry het om uitgewers te nader. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die roman handel oor Annabel, wat in Warrenton bly. N\u00e1 \u2019n ramp haar tref, besluit sy om \u2019n reis aan te pak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy hak die karavaan en saam met haar hond, Wolf, ry sy agter- en grondpaaie deur die Noord-Kaap. In haar reis deur dorpe soos Britstown, Loxton, Fraserburg, Williston en Brandvlei, oornag hulle meestal in die karavaan voor \u2019n kerk, en ontmoet sy mense wat haar van die lewe leer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gaan Annabel vrede met haar vrese maak; sielerus kry oor haar selfverwyt; en bowenal hoop \u2013 en haarself \u2013 vind?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karakter besluit self oor haar koers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van Blerk vertel dat sy lank reeds die storie in gedagte gehad het. Die hoofkarakter se naam was van die begin af Annabel, en haar hond se naam Wolf. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wyshede, van onder meer die karakter ouma Kitty, weef dwarsdeur die storie en gee dit \u2019n vaste struktuur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBelowe my, jy sal altyd na die son toe loop sodat jou skaduwee agter jou val. Die maklike pad is nie noodwendig die regte een nie, veral nie vir jou nie,\u201d s\u00ea ouma Kitty aan Annabel (bl. 45).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ongeag Van Blerk se beplanning van die roman, het die storie soms \u2019n paar afdraaipaaie van sy eie gevat. S\u00f3 het sy beplan dat Annabel die karavaan sou hak en Glentana toe ry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOp \u2019n dag, terwyl ek aan die skryf was, het ek vir my man ges\u00ea Annabel wil nie meer Glentana toe gaan nie; sy gaan nou deur dele van die Noord-Kaap ry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Die beginpunt van die boek is dat almal trauma het en Annabel moes deur vlakke van trauma werk voor die boek sy oop einde op Verneukpan kry.<\/div>\n
Rencia van Blerk<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Elemente, onder meer vere en vuur, speel \u2019n sterk rol, asook gewone mense wat vir Annabel iets van die lewe vertel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tydens die boekbekendstelling in Kimberley het Van Blerk vertel dat Annabel se spiritualiteit van vere uit haar kinderjare kom toe ouma Kitty ges\u00ea het: \u201cElke keer as jy \u2019n veer sien, is dit \u2019n engel. Jou engel wat voor jou loop.\u201d (bl. 37).<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Omdat daar \u2019n kontras tussen die eerste en die laaste vuur in die boek was, het Van Blerk \u2019n sirkel van voltooiing met di\u00e9 element getrek, en gewys dat vuur vernietigend \u00e9n helend kan wees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Een van die temas wat vir Hanekom in die roman uitstaan is di\u00e9 van bevryding uit \u2019n rol of \u2019n lewe waarin jy nie werklik pas nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAlmal van ons lewe in \u2019n mate ingeperk,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hy noem dat Annabel haarself bevraagteken; soos ons elkeen wat \u2019n basislyn van skuldgevoelens het:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSy wonder of kinders \u2019n verskil sou maak. Weke voor die brand het sy gedink sy hou nie meer van Dawid nie. Skuldgevoelens? Verligting?\u201d (bl. 14), en \u201cVerwyt is \u2019n spookpyn. \u2019n Mens raak mettertyd gewoond daaraan, net soos aan \u2019n vratjie op jou hand.\u201d (bl. 96).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lewenswyshede in storie geprys<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Om oor twee jaar deeltyds di\u00e9 MA-graad, onder leiding van prof. Henning Pieterse en dr. Francois Smith te doen, en heeltyds as waarnemende hoof op te tree, was nie sonder uitdagings nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTeen Augustus 2021, in my tweede jaar van die graad, het ek gevoel dat ek hierdie manuskrip nie gaan kan afhandel nie,\u201d s\u00ea Van Blerk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMaar my man, Marius, het my geweldig ondersteun, en vir twee jaar aanmekaar gebid\u201d. Sy het ook net lof vir haar destydse kollegas by die KGHS wat haar besonder ondersteun en goed \u201cvoor gevat\u201d het wanneer sy sommige Vrydae klasse en besprekingsessies in Bloemfontein moes bywoon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk beskou myself nie as \u2019n natuurlike skrywer nie. Ek is \u2019n taalonderwyser wat skryf; skryf is my kreatiewe uitlaatklep.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die besprekingsessies by die UV was uiters waardevol en \u2019n goeie klankbord in \u2019n akademiese veld. Vir Henning en Smith beskryf sy as \u201congelooflike begeleiers\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
In skeppende proses is jy op jou eie<\/div>\n
In di\u00e9 omgewing het haar ontwikkeling as skrywer uiters gebaat; en in die afgesonderde ruimte voor haar rekenaar het sy besef dat \u2019n mens met die skeppende skryfproses op jou eie is.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Van Blerk begin skryf met vae beelde in haar gedagtes wat mettertyd helderder word. In Britstown het die karakter Dawina vanself verskyn, en van die ander karakters was \u201cbits and pieces\u201d en kombinasies van ander. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nadat Van Blerk besef het Annabel wil deur die Noord-Kaap reis, het sy haar met die roete \u201cgehelp\u201d; op die kaart gekyk en plekke met grondpaaie gesoek wat sy as skrywer self geken het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnnabel het die Noord-Kaap gekies omdat dit is waar \u2019n mens alleen of eensaam kan wees.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So moes Van Blerk ook vir Annabel lei om haar interne konflik deurlopend te behou, sonder om in \u2019n wroegende en dweperige karakter te ontaard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy doel was \u2019n lekkerlees-roman met wyshede,\u201d s\u00ea Van Blerk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Teenwoordige by die boekbekendstelling het haar geprys vir die \u201couw\u00eareldse wyshede\u201d, maar ook jong, hedendaagse lewenslesse wat sy gebruik het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hierop het Van Blerk geantwoord dat van die wyshede van die karakters self afkomstig is, terwyl ander wyshede toe eers \u2019n stem gekry het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00f3 het die Dawina aan Annabel vertel: \u201cKinners is nie gom nie, hulle <\/strong>fix<\/strong><\/span> nie wat gebreek is tussen \u2019n man en \u2019n vrou nie. Sleg kan ook nie sommer goed raak nie. <\/strong>Better on your own, as together <\/strong><\/span>saam met <\/strong>no good<\/strong><\/span>.\u201d (bl. 154).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Net so het die karakter oompie Laars sy wyshede gedeel: \u201cMy Miempie het altyd ges\u00ea as jy \u2019n vrou seermaak, sny jy \u2019n aalwyn. Haar trane drup taai en stadig die bitterheid uit. Daai trane is medisyne, maar ons manne krop al die gal op, g\u2019n woner ons kry galstene nie.\u201d (bl. 183).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Ander het genoem dat Van Blerk lewens aanraak met haar universele temas in die boek. Nog een is verheug dat die Noord-Kaap die agtergrond is; di\u00e9 grootste provinsie wat gereeld van vergeet word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Verwerk emosies in opstelle\u2019<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Van Blerk hou van \u2019n boek in die hand, eerder as \u2019n elektroniese toestel en lees om haarself te verryk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs ek \u2019n boek lees, moet dit vir my as mens iets beteken, al stem ek nie saam nie.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In haar 17 jaar by \u2019n meisieskool het sy opgemerk dat van die meisies baie keer in hul vrye tyd lees; en dat daar steeds \u2019n groep is wat in boeke belangstel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In haar Afrikaanse klasse het sy gereeld boeke en lees met Afrikaanse musiek van onder meer Refentse en Koos du Plessis kombineer. Sy glo daar is geweldig baie geleentheid vir nuwe skrywers, veral met die oog op jeugdiges, ook op studentevlak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
Opstelle skryf help emosies verwerk<\/div>\n
Sy het ook gevind dat kreatiewe skryfwerk, soos \u2019n opstel, \u2019n manier is waarop \u2019n kind eerlik kan wees en emosies kan verwerk.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Van Blerk sal altyd probeer om ander se spelling te verbeter, maar glo terselfdertyd dat elke dialek sy plek het, en dat taal daar is om te gebruik. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk dink gesinne moet meer hul TV\u2019s en selfone afskakel; as pa en ma lees, dan lees kinders ook.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oor haar studente aan die SPU s\u00ea sy hulle is duidelik lief vir Afrikaans, en positief oor die taal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLees is een van die beste maniere om te leer hoe om te skryf, en om dinge in \u2019n ander lig te sien. Jy moet jou brein oefen,\u201d gee Van Blerk raad aan voornemende skrywers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSkryf oor wat vir jou outentiek is. Ons het almal ons eie stem; moet jouself nie forseer om te skryf om soos iemand anders te klink nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBowendien, \u2019n mens is nooit te jonk of te oud om \u2019n boek te skryf nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Idees soos skilpadeiers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Om oor kreatiewe skryfkuns te leer, was nog altyd op Van Blerk se wenslysie, maar vir meer as drie dekades het sy eers ho\u00ebrskoolleerlinge in Afrikaans onderrig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van Blerk, oorspronklik van Jan Kempdorp, het haar matriekjaar in 1985 aan die Ho\u00ebrskool Vaalharts voltooi en daarna \u2019n BA- en honneursgraad in Afrikaans en Nederlands (met lof) aan die UV verwerf. Sy het haar loopbaan as onderwyser in 1991 by die Ho\u00ebrskool Adamantia in Kimberley begin, waar sy vir tien jaar skool gegee het. Daarna was sy onder meer by die Ho\u00ebrskool Noord-Kaap en St Patrick\u2019s CBC, en daarna vir 17 jaar by die KGHS. Hier was sy ook adjunkhoof, en in 2021 en 2022 die waarnemende hoof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die publikasie van haar eerste boek voel vir Van Blerk nog bykans onwerklik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk voel klein en nederig; ek kom van \u2019n klein dorpie op die platteland, maar hier is my boek. Die afhandeling van die manuskrip gaan nie oor my nie; dit gaan daaroor dat daar aan die einde hoop moet wees.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soos Antoinette Pienaar dit stel, is haar idees vir manuskripte soos om skilpadeiers te begrawe, en aan te loop. Af en toe gaan jy weer daar verby, en kyk en luister of een gereed is om uit te broei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intussen droom sy daarvan dat haar manuskrip moontlik \u2019n rolprent kan word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
