I started writing poems, and when I first tried prose, I wrote bad articles and essays and columns, and I didn't have a handle on it. I didn't go to a school that really taught you how to write that stuff.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich fing an, Gedichte zu schreiben, und als ich Prosa zum ersten Mal ausprobierte, schrieb ich schlechte Artikel, Essays und Kolumnen, und ich hatte keine Ahnung davon. Ich bin nicht in eine Schule gegangen, in der man wirklich gelernt hat, wie man so etwas schreibt.

In the early '90s, when I really started to find my voice, I was reading a lot of books, and I was moved by the writers, like Chinua Achebe, and I wanted to be able to write rhymes that were as potent as what I was reading.
