✨ Author Bio
Hey, I'm Jessica. A Ugandan writer, poet, and librarian who believes stories can heal, stir hearts, and set souls on fire. I write the kind of fiction that feels like eavesdropping on real life-messy, honest, sometimes painful, sometimes hilarious, but always rooted in something true.

I love characters who don't have it all figured out, who feel deeply, who fall in love without asking for permission. I'm not here to write perfect stories. I'm here to write real ones.

MIRA is my baby. It's a piece of my heart. If you've ever loved someone silently, missed someone loudly, or searched for yourself in a loud world-this one's for you.

When I'm not writing, I'm usually volunteering, curating books, overthinking life, or sipping tea and daydreaming about the man who'll find me in a hotel garden while I'm writing on my laptop. (Yes, I'm that girl.)

Follow me if you're into: 💌 raw emotions
💭 inner monologues that hit too close
📚 African stories with soul
💋 girls who write, love, and survive
