Karapu Lit: Te Rōpū Koti Pukapuka Dusty
London, Ontario, Canada
Ahakoa a BUNNY EARS me BOAS, he tino pānui pukapuka rātou. He mea nui ki te Dusty Book Jacket Society āna pukapuka...ahakoa kei te kata te katoa.
EHARA i te mea ko The Dust Bunnies, āe...ahakoa te whakaahua?
Kāo, ko mātou te Dusty Book Jacket Society. Kei te whakanui mātou i te rā whānau o tō mātou kaiwhakaū i roto i te whakaahua..
He ingoa ataahua—he aha te kōrero kei muri?
He tohu tēnei ki ngā papa matihiko. I a tātou e piki haere ana te tango i ā tātou rauemi pānui, he mea whakakatakata ki a tātou te ahua o ngā pukapuka e takoto kau ana i runga i te whata pukapuka, e piki haere ana te puehu.
E whakaatu ana hoki te ingoa i te meka kāore mātou e tino aro nui ki a mātou anō. Nā te mea, ki te kīia tō karapu pukapuka ko ngā "dusty BJ's," kāore e taea te kī kāore he tae o te ao!
He aha to korero?
I tuku kōrero tā mātou mema whakatū ki runga i a Pukamata, e rapu ana i ngā wāhine whai whakaaro rite ki a rātou hei whakatū i tētahi karapu pukapuka. He nui rawa te hiahia, nō reira me whakawhāiti noa ngā pōwhiri ki ngā whakautu tuatahi tekau.
I te tīmatanga he tauhou noa iho māua, i tūtaki ai māua i runga i te aroha ki ngā pukapuka—he hononga ki tētahi, ki ētahi atu rānei. Kua tūtaki māua i ia marama mai i te tau 2013, ā, kāore anō kia titiro whakamuri.
E hia ngā mema inaianei?
I ngaro ētahi o ngā mema nā te rerekētanga o ngā āhuatanga whaiaro, engari i whakatau mātou ki te whakawhāiti i te tokowaru noa iho nā te mea i tino pai tō mātou whakakotahitanga.
Kōrero mai ki a mātou he aha ngā mea i pānuihia e koe i ngā wā tata nei.
Anei ngā mea kua pānuihia e mātou i te tau kua hipa:

He makau?
E whakaae ana tātou katoa Ngā Wāhine Whare Riri e Kai Ana i ngā Bon Bons ko tā mātou tino pai. Hei pukapuka tuatahi i te tau 2013, ko tana arotahi ki ngā hoahoa wahine me te tikanga o te noho ki tētahi karapu pukapuka i whakatakoto i te āhua mō te karapu ka riro i a mātou. Pērā i ngā kiripuaki o te pukapuka, i tīmata te nuinga o mātou hei tangata tauhou, hei hoa rānei, engari i ia pukapuka i pānuihia e mātou, ka hohonu haere ō mātou whanaungatanga ki ngā hoahoa pono e mau tonu ana i waho o ngā hui.
Nā tēnei pukapuka anō hoki i homai te whakaaro ki a tātou kia honoa ngā kai e tukuna ana i ngā hui ki te pukapuka e kōrerohia ana. He huarahi pai tēnei hei tāpiri tirohanga whakamere ki tā tātou e pānui ana, ā, ka taea hoki e tātou te whakaatu i tō tātou auahatanga tunu kai.
Ā, me ngā pukapuka i ārahi ki ngā kōrero tino pai?
Ko ngā pukapuka katoa i pānuihia he tūāpapa i whakamahia e mātou hei tūhura i ō mātou ao mai i tētahi tirohanga rerekē. Nā te mea kāore mātou e piri ki tētahi momo pukapuka, ka rerekē pea te hohonutanga o ā mātou kōrero i ia marama, i ia marama, ā, ka ahu mai i te kaupapa o te pukapuka e pānuihia ana e mātou. Ko ā mātou kōrero pai ko ngā kōrero whaiaro, ngā whakaaroaro tūturu me ngā wā pono me te nui o te kata me te tawai ngāwari i whakaurua ki roto.
Mō ngā mahi pakiwaitara, He rereke i whakaaetia ai he kōrero whakamiharo mō te tikanga o te whakauru ki tētahi tūranga i roto i te hapori. I whakamahia e mātou te pātai kei muri o te pukapuka kia rite ai mātou ki te kōrero mēnā i whakaae koe ki tā rātou i tapa ai ko koe tō "rōpū". Ko tētahi atu pukapuka pakiwaitara, Ngā Kōtiro Peita, i mea kia tirohia e mātou te utu hei whakapai ake i ō āhuatanga o te ao, inā koa i te wā e tamariki ana koe.
Ka puta mai hoki ngā kōrero pai i roto i ngā tuhinga kore-pūrākau. Hei tauira, Te tamahine a te Imam Nā Hannah Shah i titiro tūturu ki te āhua pōuri e pā ana ki te nuinga o ngā wāhine rangatahi o te hapori i ēnei rā, me te pakanga ahurea e puta ana i waenga i ngā whakatipuranga. I roto i tā mātou kōrero mō tēnei pukapuka, i whakaurua ngā whakaaro tino mohio mō ngā mahi whakamataku i mahia e te kaituhi hei mawhiti i tōna whānau, me te pānga o te tukino a ngā tāne me ngā wāhine whakapono ki te hinengaro o te hunga hara.
Kei hea āu hui e tū ai?
Ka hurihia ngā kāinga i te Tūrei tuarua o ia marama, me ia mema e whai wā ki te mahi. Mā te kaihautū o te marama e whiriwhiri te pukapuka, te kaupapa kai, me te whakarato inu. Ka hurahia e te kaihautū o te marama e whai ake nei āna pukapuka hei pānui i te mutunga o te kōrero i ngā hui o mua. He wā tino tumanakohia tēnei; he maha ngā wā ka tangohia ngā papa, ka tangohia ngā pukapuka hei pānui tonu.
Me pēhea tāu whiriwhiri i āu pukapuka?
He whiriwhiri whaiaro ia pukapuka nā te kaihautū. He maha ngā puna whakaaro e ahu mai ana, tae atu ki ngā paetukutuku whiriwhiri pānui, ngā arotake pukapuka, ngā taunakitanga a ngā hoa me te whānau, me ngā whakarāpopototanga uhi pukapuka e ātaahua ana te ahua.
He ture?
I te nuinga o te wā, he marino te rōpū mō te hanganga, ā, kāore he ture tūturu e pā ana. Ko te ngahau, te whakahoahoa me te kai, me te hiahia ki te pānui i waho o te rohe whakamarie o te tangata, koinei anake ngā whakaritenga e tumanakohia ana e mātou mai i a mātou anō.
Ā, me pēhea rā ngā mahi motuhake i te wā o ngā hui?
Ka whakamahia e mātou te kai hei whakanui i te pukapuka i tētahi ara. Ka kawea mai e ia mema tētahi rihi, he kai mātotoru rānei hei whakaata i te kaupapa kua whakatakotoria e te kaihautū. Hei tauira, i tino ngahau mātou ki te whakataurite i ngā rihi o te wharekai ki Te Ngā Supremes i Earls All-You-Can-Eat, ngā huānga tina Kirihimete ki a Mary Kay Andrews' Harikoa Kirihimete, me te kai whakaaweawe a Itari ki Te Kura Tunu Kai a te Atua Wahine Aroha.
Hei tāpiritanga, he maha ngā marama kua whakapā atu te kaihautū ki te kaituhi o te pukapuka e pānuihia ana e mātou kia whiwhi whakaaro ai mō tāna pukapuka. He mea whakahihiri te whai wā o te kaituhi ki te whakautu i te īmēra me te tuku mai i ētahi atu māramatanga, ā, he mea pai hoki hei tāpiri atu ki te kōrero.
He aha atu anō tāu e hiahia ana ki te kōrero mai ki a mātou mō te Dusty Book Jacket Society?
Kāore he hui e kore e mutu me te kore he wā kata tahi, me muru hoki ngā roimata i ō tātou kanohi. He onge te tūnga o ngā hui ki waho i te wehi kei takahia he ture mō te haruru.
I te nuinga o te wā, me pēhea e whakaahua ai koe i tō karapu?
Harikoa te hunga e ngahau ana! I roto i tō mātou kaupapa, he rōpū wāhine whakamere mātou e aroha pono ana tetahi ki tetahi. Ka whakanuia e mātou ō mātou rerekētanga, ka rapu huarahi hei kata tahi, ā, ka tautoko tetahi i tetahi i ngā wā e hiahiatia ana. He hapori tūturu tēnei.
