Real name Relindis Wai Kum, Donn Wai's artistic journey is one of unrivalled passion and resilience. In poetry and storytelling, she has found healing and a reason to live. Through her writing, she weaves lives and the world with the same words that have knitted her life together. As a self-taught artist, her writing is free and creative, and her sensitivity can make it both strong and gentle.   Now living in Yaoundé, a long way from her native region in north-west Cameroon, which she had to flee for security reasons, Donn Wai finds the strength to resist through the words she puts to the evils.
