Mary Stewart on success



"I can sit and talk happily to people about books and authors without realizing that I am myself the author of nine books... As a matter of fact, it still startles me to see my name on books, or to realize that it means anything to anyone. Yet, judging by the letters I receive from readers, it does."

Quoted in:
Smaridge, Norah. Famous British Women Novelists. New York: Dodd, Mead & Co., 1967. Page 122.

Apologies

Sorry for the long, long, long time between posts! I haven't given up on this blog, I've just been too busy to give it the time it deserves. But I get so many nice comments and emails that I really want to keep it up better. So I will try!
