I was also an early writer, and when I began to write, at about the age of seven, stories in pencil with crayon illustrations that my poor mother was obligated to read, I wrote exactly the kinds of stories I was reading: All my characters were white and blue-eyed, they played in the snow, they ate apples, (Laughter) and they talked a lot about the weather, how lovely it was that the sun had come out.
Também fui uma escritora precoce. Quando comecei a escrever,  por volta dos sete anos, histórias a lápis  com ilustrações a lápis de cor que a minha pobre mãe era obrigada a ler, eu escrevia exactamente  o tipo de histórias que eu lia. Todas as minhas personagens  eram brancas e de olhos azuis. Brincavam na neve. Comiam maçãs. (Risos) E falavam muito do tempo, como era maravilhoso o sol ter aparecido.
