Hello👋🏾

I’m Mfena, a romance ghostwriter from Nigeria with more than half a decade of professional writing experience. I love to read and write gripping, swoonworthy stories with a dash of humor.

The subgenres I have experience writing in are contemporary, suspense, paranormal, fantasy, and thriller! With or without on-page intimate scenes.

I’m open to writing stand-alones and series. I can write and submit a clean draft of 20k words weekly.

I also write blurbs for all genres. As long as I have a summary of your book, I can craft a winning description. But if I’m writing the book for you, the blurb is free!

I prioritize my clients’ satisfaction so I’m open to as many revisions as it takes to get you a book you’re happy with. Whatever the starting point, I’m open to taking on your work. Whether it’s an idea, outline or a rough draft, I’m happy to develop it as required.

My rate is 7 cents per word. Blurbs are $20 a piece.

My preferred style of payment for longer works is in milestones. You pay after the first milestone is submitted, and so on. Wire transfer works best for me, but if that doesn’t work for you, we can find an alternative that suits us both.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

I began the low carb diet almost two weeks ago because of my skin. I have seb derm and I notice it gets better on a low carb diet. I've done cycles in the past where I go low carb before going back to a basic diet again. The longest I lasted was 2 months and 3-4 months after that, my skin remained relatively clear. But it came back, on my scalp and all over my face. I managed to keep the worst of it away with small bursts of lowered carbs, shampoos, and ointments. But only just and it's annoying. Missing one day of application makes it come back with a vengeance and it's so hard to get rid of again.

This time around, I want to see if I can go for longer and maybe make it a lifestyle thing. But I always notice that around this time (a couple weeks in), I start to feel really weak and tired. I actually don't know how I kept going for 2 months in 2024. Maybe my carbs weren't as low as I thought? I wasn't tracking. I am now and trying to keep total carbs below 50g daily.

But I'm so tired now I can't stand it. I'm sleeping a lot and getting out of bed is hard. How do you do it? The exhaustion bothers me so much. It feels unhealthy. I'm also drinking lots of water to prevent constipation, but pouring salt in my water worries me. How much is too much?

What am I doing wrong? Is it like this for everyone?

On the days I went overboard, apart from the first two (when I was easing into it), it came from trying new foods. I wasn't sure about measurements and I didn't want to let the foods go to waste.

What am I doing wrong?
