   It’s all so exciting, to see Jill working on so many great projects. Seeing this piece on CNN just globalizes her image and allows people to see that she is becoming a multi-talented mega star right before our eyes!

   I wish Jill all the love and success she deserves, and I hope she will always keep it real and not to forget her adoring fans. I truly think that is what sets her apart from the rest- is this idea that we as fans can relate with her as a person and poet, who’s persona has alot to do with her charm and appeal. Of course the music, her voice, and charisma still sets her apart from the rest, but I think the way she makes her fans feel and how she comes through with each album or performance is what will keep her high in her game.

   Much happiness and success Jill! Every bit of your success is matched with our joy for you!

   Jill,

   Just want to tell am very disgraced about myself! – Am born and raised in Botswana, I have not read the story about Mma Ramotswe yet! TRUST.. Me – I am gonna go to Barnes & Noble an get the Book. The shocking part is, I met an Anthology Professor for Bryant University in Rhode Island and he told me about, No. 1 Ladies Detective agency. And, he was shocked himself that I have not ready the book neither watched the movie!

   I will visit Bryant University Anthropology to give a speech to the students about Botswana folklore – I will make sure every single student buys and reads the book!

   Am excited…. finally that Botswana is been added to the American Films market!

   Thank you Jill for accepting the role as Mma Ramotswe..

   Having read all the books I was intrigued to see what the movies would be like. This series has just started showing in Australia. You are absolutely fantastic. Congratulations. You should be so proud. The accent must have been so difficult. Hope you perform down this way some time.
