I grew up in Blantyre, Malawi

I currently live in Lilongwe, Malawi

I read and write in English, Chichewa. (languages)

I write Short_stories, Diary, Journalism, Essays. (genres)

I write for private.

Reason why I write: I write because there's so many stories to be told and I'd be selfish not to share.

My favourite authors are Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Sally Roonie, Khaled Hosseini, John Green, Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o.

My favourite stories on The GOAT PoL include The Road Does Not Ask Who You Are , Future Generations , A Letter to My African Queen, S , Nosebleed on Blacktop ,

My favourite subject(s) to write about include Short stories, Culture.

The most difficult part I find about writing is Sharing vulnerable stories

Most rewarding moment as a writer for me is Telling a story that could potentially make someone feel seen or heard. Sharing truths most people are afraid of talking about.
