Amanda Ilozumba @ilozumba.bsky.social · 27/09/2023My 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. Read it here: lolwe.org/the-haunting... 151
