I wish I'd gone to a small liberal-arts college where I'd have read the great books instead of a large university where I majored in early-childhood education.
From Judy Blume
I am not sure that the inner world of teenage girls has changed. What's most important to kids today is still the same stuff.
Here's the thing: If you don't want your kids to read a book, fine. You can tell them not to read a book, and maybe they will and maybe they won't. But you can't say what other kids can read.
I don't do issue writing. I do character writing.
I know it's working when I'm writing a book if I'm laughing or crying.
The '50s were a secretive time.
My mother's mantra was, 'How would it look to the neighbors?' And so you don't do anything because you're worried about how it would look to the neighbors.
You're supposed to be challenged in college.
We can have our beliefs and still read and discuss things.
I was a fearful kid and, for some crazy reason, a pretty fearless writer.
