Grateful to be part of Reckoning
Seriously: thank your submission readers. You hear it all the time: writing is confessional, writing is therapy. That puts editors and readers squarely in the role of counselor, therapist, even priest. Specifically, cause I don't say it enough, thank you @ilozumba.bsky.social, Ivy Raff, ... [cont]

My debut horror short story, ‘The Haunting of Kambili,’ is out on Lolwe. It explores the horrors of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). I really loved writing this one because I had to write it carefully to not distract from the message I want to pass.
