Ruth Joyce Waweru

Poet and teacher

  • 🇹🇿 Kinondoni, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
  • Kinondoni Times
  • Since 1980
  • English, Swahili, French
I've been writing since 1980. First as a hobby, then as a job and finally as the thing I couldn't stop doing. I write best early in the morning with a pot of tea. I bake for the whole street at New Year.

More about Ruth

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