ABOUT PEN GLOWY
Pen Glowy is the pen name of Glory Bomane Temerigha, a Nigerian and a native of Opume Community in Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa State.
She is a Musician with the stage name, Bomaneh which reflects the pronunciation of her middle name and is the local translation of her first name. She is also a music producer and guitarist.
She is a graduate of Niger Delta University, where she studied Computer Science, and holds a Master’s degree in Information Technology from the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN).
She expresses her IT expertise through her business, TEMAZI, operating as Temazi Studio which offers IT services. Temazi is coined from the first three letters of her late aunt's name Temerigha Azibawuramamu (also known as Helen Azibawuramamu Temeria - Temerigha), who raised her for the first ten years of her life and inspired her love for reading.
As an entrepreneur she founded Bayelsa Business List, a growing directory created to help businesses and clients connect. As a creative, she runs Recommendally, a lifestyle and entertainment platform that also provides guides on a diverse range of subjects.
Her love for reading fiction eventually led her into writing. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she found time away from work to read romance novels and searched for one with an intriguing male character—but couldn’t find a story that fit her ideal. So she created one. This led to her debut romance novel, Dark Love, which she began publishing on Inkitt.
Initially updating the story for her own reading pleasure, she was surprised by an influx of readers. Their response encouraged her to continue writing.
She believes that creativity knows no borders—that regardless of where you are in the world, passion can spark something remarkable. Through her journey, she hopes to inspire others to keep their creative fire alive, pursue their goals boldly, and prove that where you start does not limit where you can go.
Pen Glowy loves nature and enjoys spending time with her family in Nigeria, where she lives.
“I want to speak to creatives everywhere—especially those in overlooked places—about the power of starting where you are. Your location doesn’t define your reach. If the fire of your passion burns steady, your creativity will find its way to the world.”
