The Bakiga Tribe is found in the magnificent Kigezi hills in southwestern Uganda. Back in the 1950s, young girls from the Bakiga tribe who would lose their virginity before marriage and end up being pregnant would be taken to the small island on Lake Bunyonyi which is the second deepest lake in Africa and the third deepest in the world.
The small island locally known as Akapeene which means a place of punishment consumed many lives of young girls and their unborn babies some of whom would be victims of rape. Every girl had to guard her virtue which older men would then strip away.
HYMEN is a story based on true events told through the eyes of Maria, a young beautiful girl, the only child of her father who only saw her as a gift from the gods and a means of riches. In this story, we get to experience the horror, pain, torture, and love cut short that the girls experienced.

"First you captivated me... then you held me captive." Evelyn was like most college-aged girls working a part-time job when she met Caleb, who came in to her life when she wanted him least but needed him most. He captivated her. By the end of summer, she had fallen in love with him. It was then that he wanted her to meet his parents. And that's when everything changed. Caleb was not the man Evelyn thought he was. He came from a secluded village that did things much differently from the rest of society. Isolated in one of the most sparsely populated areas of the country, it was as if they live in their own little world. They were a traditional village for the most part, but there were some aspects that they did much differently than any other, especially in the ways of courtship. It didn't take long for Evelyn to realize one thing: once you were brought home to meet the parents, there was no escape.Complete

Gracefully Broken
At 25, I finally decided to write this book, after two unsuccessful attempts, one in form two (2012) and the other attempt after form five (2015). Both attempts happened after a strange encounter in life. Both encounters were horrible but if there's anything I picked from it, I love me a challenge, it is then that I think, it is then that I come up with ideas I didn't think I had within me, it is then that my creative juices flow. You know what they say, third time is a charm. Let's go again, this book is raw, but let's worry about perfection another day. At this point in my life, this book is my legacy, and my purpose. It depicts real life experiences that showcase perseverance, resilience and overcoming. Most people write memoirs or biographies when they are older, successful or somewhere in life, but this is different, I am not even close to achieving what I know I am capable of achieving, I just want this story told, and that's exactly what I am doing. If one thing should be obvious, I am so proud to be Ugandan, it is even incredible to be East African, but oh boy, what a time to be an African. Our stories have to be told, with zero filters and shame. Who better tell these stories than ourselves. Enjoy

This is a story about life, finding oneself in unfamiliar territory, losing those we love, staying together with those we love, growing up, hardship, and above all else, finding a way through. Stay strong, dear reader, there may be rough water ahead. **** It is important to note that there is disturbing content in this story. I am not a woman, and I do not presume to know all the hardships a woman may face. I do not intend this story to take away from real stories, nor do I intend to make myself seem somehow righteous in telling of the hardships of others, even in a fictional sense. I only wish to acknowledge the cruelty in this world, and the reality of the suffering of those who suffer, who are hurt, who are victims.Complete
