I am a Rwandan writer, editor, journalist, and all-around lover of words. When I am not spinning stories or shaping poems, I am helping fellow writers find their voice and supporting literary adventures. My work flows through fiction, non-fiction, and poetry, and has appeared in several magazines and anthologies.

What my readers are saying

Patrick

Mutoni: The Innovator of Kiruku challenges the notion that greatness is reserved for a few. Reading this book made me reflect on the hidden potential in every child, especially those from underprivileged backgrounds. With belief, guidance, and perseverance, children can truly become the innovators they are meant to be. The story is written in a simple yet powerful way, and its illustrations bring the ideas being shared to life.

Reading Mutoni: The Innovator of Kiruku felt like looking into a mirror. Mutoni’s courage, creativity, and resilience touched me deeply because I saw my own story in hers .The struggles, the doubts, but also the unstoppable belief in pushing forward. This book is more than just a story, it’s a call to dream bigger and to never let fear or circumstances define you. Truly inspiring and empowering!
