(Re, some questions u can answer in any way)1. At what (young) age did you start getting the urge/itch to write, and did you have ambivalent feelings about this, then?
2. Which/what writers inspired you most as a child/young person? Who were your favourite writers then?
3. How did you feel seeing your first published book - in print for the very first time? And how did you react
4. Do you know about pioneer female writers in Africa? Like Flora Nwapa, Zulu Sofola, and Miriam Tlali (South Africa)? They had to fight against many odds to get published in those days...do they inspire you?
5. By the way, who are your favourite female African writers? And what about Eurocentric female writers who excite you?
6. Till date, Wole Soyinka (since 1986) remains the only black African writer to win the Nobel Award for Literature. What are your thoughts about this?
7. What are your future plans as a writer - maybe your approach/theme to your next book?
Thank you, Yemisi, for recommending Maids of Misfortune by M. Louisa Locke. I have added this book to my books to read.I am suggesting one of my favorites: 'Til the Well Runs Dry, by Lauren Francis-Sharma.
Kindest regards,
Urenna
