Behaving Like A Princess Is

I Love Singing, And I Came To Absolutely Adore It In The Later Part Of My Career.

I Feel An Enormous Responsibility To Bridge The Gap Between England And America, And Be A Sort Of Very Quiet Ambassador For My Country To Try To Sort Of Do A "hands Across The Water" Thing Where They Understand England And English People Understand Americans. I Adore America.

Growing Up In England, Of Course You Do Absorb Certain Ways The Royals Wave Their Hands And Carry Themselves. Like Most Girls, I Fantasized About Being Some Sort Of A Princess.

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.

My Books Have Three W's On Them, Which Are "words," "wisdom," And "wonder." Words Inevitably Lead To Wisdom, And Wisdom Inevitably Leads To Wonder And Awe At This Phenomenal World Around Us.
