My name is Babatunde Olayiwola. I'm a Nigerian, a millennial, an autodidact—born on the twenty-ninth of March.
I'm a writer.
Many a time I try to pull rank on my characters—make them do what I want, say what I want—but I'm met with defiance by the characters and end up writing what they want.
"I try to fight off the urge to spy on Steve on Instagram, but I’m weak. My mobile phone is on the dressing table—I grab it as if it’s about to grow legs and run."
