: About Me

I'm a mother and a wife who has a passion for writing that I can trace back to when I was very young growing up in Kenya.

I thank my father for exposing me to that wealth of information. As I grew older I got even more passionate about writing. Even though I'm no longer such a voracious reader, now that I'm writing more, I'm planning to get back to reading alot more.
