My Journey
For over a decade, I’ve been immersed in the world of storytelling — nurturing this blog, writing three books of my own (Njambi & Kagwe’s World, A Taste of Mel, and The One Who Called Me Chérie), and contributing to publications such as Buzz Magazine, Bikozulu, A Man at 40, and Aayo Magazine.
While I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and a Master’s in International Business Management, my true calling—and focus—is writing. My childhood dream of writing grew into an enduring passion, fueled by a lifelong, voracious love of books.
I write to explore ideas, clear my mind, and understand the glorious, albeit confounding, human experience. Simply put, and humbly borrowing from the great writers before me: I write because I have to. The stories and characters that live in me give me no choice.
How we can work together
Now, I am drawn to sharing this love by supporting others to write. I work as an editor and writing coach for those who feel a stirring but aren’t sure how to begin—people who have something to say, but want help saying it well.
While AI-driven LLMs can now easily generate clean text in seconds, less programmable concepts such as meaning, nuance, emotional accuracy, and steady, human companionship are still beyond their reach.
If you’re writing for pleasure, catharsis, reflection, or entertainment — or if you’re returning to writing after a long silence — I offer thoughtful feedback and guidance focused on the craft of writing.
If that sounds like the kind of writing support you’ve been looking for, below are the ways we can work together.
