A good interview from a writer with a clear voice.
Originally shared by Self-Rescuing Princess Society
“Most of the science fiction that I read growing up was filled with white men doing white men things—not to say that that’s bad or anything—but it just didn’t attract me. I started writing science fiction because on my trips to Nigeria I would notice technology being used in ways that I thought were unique and specific. When I saw this, I noticed that this is not how this part of the world was being portrayed in literature. So, that kind of made me want to just do it myself. I started writing it, because I wanted to see it. I wanted to read it.”
Have you read any of her work? What did you think? I haven’t, yet, but it’s in the TBR pile.
