Adichie, who has authored award-winning novels such as Americanah andHalf a Yellow Sun, delivered a poignant and humorous short speech upon accepting her award, and imparted key words of wisdom on finding your voice as a young female writer. "I think it's important to tell your story truthfully, and I think that's a difficult thing to do--to be truly truthful.

The writer goes on to share the advice she gives her young students, especially the girls, to "forget about likability. " "That is bullshit," she says, to loud applause.
