Writers never feel comfortable having labels attached to them, however accurate they are.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As far as I am concerned, I write novels, and other people can do the labelling.
Writers aren't born properly labeled so it is hard to know one when one appears.
I don't like labels. I don't understand the need for them. When you define yourself a certain way, people have expectations.
I don't put labels on myself.
Oh, I love labels, as long as they are numerous. I'm an American writer. I'm a Nigerian writer. I'm a Nigerian American writer. I'm an African writer. I'm a Yoruba writer. I'm an African American writer.
I've never concerned myself with the labels people want to put on you. What matters to me is my own estimation.
I've always ignored the labels people put on things.
A reader should know what he might reasonably expect under a particular label.
Labels are for filing. Labels are for clothing. Labels are not for people.
To be very blunt, I am not really that concerned with what labels get associated with somebody.
