Frigid - JAY Lit Days before the COVID-19 outbreak came to our borders, we had a bitter exchange, flinging words at each other as though they were dirty rags. We barely spoke in the following two days. For the next th...

I don't know where my stories come from, but sometimes an idea clings to me & won't let go. That was this story in JayLit.
I enjoyed writing this. And hope readers enjoy it, too. Take a look. Sink into the magic of Africa's stories. #africanwriter #zambianwriter #africanstories

Thank you for that important context! Here's the updated alt text:

**Alt text:** A stylized portrait drawing of author, playwright and storyteller Gail Nyoka Arthur, rendered in warm earth tones of gold, brown, and peach against a textured background. The artwork appears to be done in colored pencil or pastel. Overlaid on and around the portrait is white text that reads: "Let me tell you a story about African girls and the magic that lies in myths and legends. And let me whisper truths in your mind's ear so you know that your precious country is not free of racism. I have heard of king's daughters strong enough to speak the words of the N'anga to save their father and the land. I have heard of young ones whose wit and humor can defeat rulers of great wealth and power. I weave words on pages, I weave words on the wind, creating tapestries of enchanted tales to dream new worlds and take you out of yourself."

The text appears to be in Gail Nyoka Arthur's voice, speaking about her work as a storyteller who draws from African traditions and addresses themes of heritage, resistance, and the transformative power of narrative.

Today I did my first sketch of playright, author and storyteller Gail Nyoka and tried out the concept that came to me in the liminal space between sleeping and waking. I hope to get a closer likeness on my next go.

Growing up, I rarely saw characters who looked like me in books. It’s important that children—especially those from the African continent & diaspora—know their stories matter.

A Decade Later… I’m Back.

Ten years. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long since I last published a book.

Life happened, time passed, but the stories never stopped coming.

Brightly coloured kids fiction 6 book covers of author Atinuke's "The No.1 Car Spotter" series published in the UK by Walker Books

Dear @walkerbooks this series is utterly fab, have reread each so often to the boy that our copies of the paperbacks are starting to fall apart. Please put out a collected edition of #NumberOneCarSpotter stories and do commission more from Atinuke too! #booksforboys #notjustforboys #africanstories

📚 Did you know? Africa's storytelling tradition is ancient! Before written books, history & tales were passed down orally through vibrant stories, songs & proverbs. These "living libraries" shaped African literature as we know it! #WorldBookDay #AfricanStories #booksky
