I haven't heard back in more than three days. What should I do?
Please follow up by sending a brief email referencing your original message. Occasionally things get lost. We have never intentionally ignored anyone.

I'm a journalist writing about Rwandan literature. Can I speak with someone?
Yes. Email us with "Media" in the subject line or select "Media or press inquiry" in the form. We are happy to connect journalists with our writers and editors.
