Juma Evans Kiptoo

Poet and teacher

  • 🇹🇿 Mwanza, Mwanza, Tanzania
  • Valley View Courier
  • Since 1989

I'm a writer in Mwanza. Food writing is my first love and local history is my second. I write best early in the morning with a pot of tea. I paint watercolors of whatever is outside the window.

More about Juma

Some of my pieces still make me wince. Some, I'm proud of.
What gifts mean to Juma: A gift would give me a bit more time to write instead of taking on extra work.
