Responding to Hartley's letter about her literary career and his creative writing students. She responded “Please assure your students that each of them has a story that no one else can tell. It may take them awhile to realize and reasure-their own unique experience and perspective-it did me-but, finally, that is the story they must write.” She continues describing some of her works and how they emerged, finishing that she had just written an introduction for a new hardcover “Collector's edition” of “A Woman of Independent Means” following the success of NBC's miniseries of it with Sally Fields.
