I Think Every Young Girl At Some

A Lot Of My Life Happened In Great, Wonderful Bursts Of Good Fortune, And Then I Would Race To Be Worthy Of It.

In A Way I Do Hate The Process Of Writing. It's Like Learning A Role Where You Never Think You're Going To Be Able To Conquer It When You Start And It Just Takes Enough Focus And Narrowing And Getting Enthusiastic And Not Losing It And So On. It's Never Good Enough, But You Aim For Something And You Hope It Comes Somewhat Close. But It Is A Pleasure Once You Have Written It.

Quite Often I'll Turn On The Television And Something Like Sound Of Music Will Be On Or Victor/victoria And I Might Watch A Moment Or Two. But I Don't Actually Sit Down And Say I'm Going To Watch One Of My Movies.

You Know, Making An Animated Movie Is Such A Lonesome Thing. You Mostly Don't See Your Fellow Actors Or Anything. You Go Into Your Booth, You Record All Your Dialogue. It's Very Much An Issue Of Trust. You Leave It All Up To The Director.

These Days, People Like Me Who Are In The Arts Are Perceived As Celebrity Writers. That Really Makes Me Angry Because I Expend A Great Deal Of Effort And Spend An Enormous Amount Of Time On My Books. And I've Been Writing Now For 35 Years.
