I am Mary Mucangi. From a young age, I loved writing letters back when the post office was our main way of communication. I would write, rewrite, and proofread carefully, determined to send out something beautiful and free of errors. As I grew older, people often commended me for how I expressed myself, whether in writing or speaking. That’s when I discovered writing was more than a hobby; it was a gift. A gift to breathe life into the hopeless and to inspire everyone who reads or hears my words.
