translation.en: I was also an early writer, and when I began to write, at about the age of seven, stories in pencil with crayon illustrations that my poor mother was obligated to read, I wrote exactly the kinds of stories I was reading: All my characters were white and blue-eyed, they played in the snow, they ate apples,  and they talked a lot about the weather, how lovely it was that the sun had come out.
translation.zh: 我也是从小就开始写作。 当我在七岁那年 开始强迫我可怜的母亲阅读我用铅笔写好的故事 外加上蜡笔描绘的插图时， 我所写的故事正如我所读到的故事那般。 我故事里的人物们都是白皮肤、蓝眼睛的， 常在雪中嬉戏， 吃着苹果。  而且他们经常讨论天气， 讨论太阳出来时，一切都多么美好。
