The artist who found her voice on paper.
Lucinda Vermeulen has always lived with one foot in the world of art and the other in storytelling. A painter first, she spent her early years lost in colour, texture, and the quiet power of visual expression. Creativity wasn’t a hobby, it was survival, sanctuary, and rebellion all in one.
She began writing poetry at a young age, drawn to the raw beauty of language and the truths it can carry. But poetry, so intimate, so unfiltered, sometimes pulled her into places she wasn't ready to stay. She stepped away from it when she needed to breathe again.
Years passed. Life happened. But the stories never stopped whispering.
Her Story is her debut novel, a deeply personal and emotionally rich journey that poured out of her at exactly the right time. She thought it would be one book, just one. Instead, it unlocked something bigger. She’s now working on six full-length novels and, in just six months, has written 104 children’s books, each one stitched with imagination and heart.
Lucinda writes with honesty, compassion, and a fierce sense of purpose. Her stories reflect the women who raised her, the children who inspire her, and the quiet fire that’s always lived inside her. She writes for those who have been silenced, for those who’ve bent without breaking, and for those still waiting to tell their own stories.
This is just the beginning…
