Hello and welcome to my blog,

My name is Francesca Namwaya Miller and I am a writer based in London, born in Paris to East African parents.

I particularly write about people, arts, cinema, literature from diverse cultures (African and Asian namely) as well as women who are underrepresented in mainstream pop culture.

Imagine if the next most popular literary hero or highest selling visual artist was a Black or Oriental teenage girl? How about a popular TV show around the world that is in fact an adaptation from a Bengali story?

Explore my portfolio of stories about compelling heroes and heroins, fantasy and real life stories and folk tales about amazing people from places and cultures that should be intrinsically connected to Western storytelling and diverse culture.
