Joseph Qinumuzi Mahono was born in 1987 at Sebokeng Hospital, South Africa, to Esther Mahono and Johannes Mpenga. Raised in the heart of the Vaal, Joseph draws inspiration from the rich stories, culture, and everyday resilience of township life. He completed his education up to Grade 12 and later trained in computer literacy and admin, developing a strong passion for storytelling and self-taught writing.
The Last Watchman is his gripping debut novella series, blending mystery, subtle horror, and emotional depth. Through the haunting tale of Lefa Mobu and the ghost of Jabu Nkosi, Joseph explores themes of duty, memory, and the unseen forces that linger in forgotten places. When he's not writing, Joseph enjoys exploring local history, listening to music, and spending time in his community.
