Fumilayo Johnson was born in Las Palmas in 1989. During her childhood, she lived in Guardamar del Segura in the province of Alicante, and later in Valencia. In addition to her passion for literature,, she also works creatively as a screenwriter. From an early age she focussed her thirst for knowledge on the traditions of her country of origin. A passionate reader, she seeks her own literary voice through the stories that—thanks the the oral traditions of Equatorial Guinea, where her parents were born—she brings together in Granny Chioma's Stories, the first in the "Nisintory" series.
