BIOGRAPHYTomasina, better known by her nickname: "Toms", is an author whose appetite for reading and listening to stories eclipses her actual writing output. Her fondness for Apple Galettes contrasts with her obsessive contemplation on why the pie rhymes with "regret." In her youth, she once captured the Moon which remains her greatest treasure, but lost it due to holding on too tightly. Her literary works resonate with an unwavering dedication to her lost moon; each word on every page is a homage to her monumental loss.Tomasina hails from Lagos, Nigeria. She also hails from Florence, Italy and other places like Nosifa and Meldiwort and Durmonst. When she is not reading a book or struggling to write one, she can often be found peering at the stars and constellations through the lens of her trusted telescope: Iris. Her interest in space and other cosmic phenomena is quite unparalleled and she one day hopes to become an astronaut and sail away into the stars and never, ever, ever, ever, ever look back.
