My name is Carolle Ruto, and I am an author from Kenya. My work is inspired by genuine struggles and unspoken truths. My memoir, *My War With Fibroids – A Wombful of Scars, Silence, and Survival,* recounts my journey of living with and overcoming fibroids. Simultaneously, my novel, *When Daughters Are Neglected*, delves into themes of silence, familial discord, and resilience. My writing embodies genuine struggles and resilience, bearing the weight of scars and giving voice to those often unheard.
