Any number of definitions help to determine who we are. It doesn't hurt to be a woman writer, an American woman writer, American woman writer of the 21st century. I think all these descriptions of us - and they're descriptions and adjectives that pertain to you - none of them diminish you, really. I think that maybe there's a kind of deepening or expansion the more identifications you have. (Joyce Carol Oates)
