I Hate The Word Wholesome.

I Think Of Part Of Myself As A Very Passionate Person, But I Don't Think That Comes Across. I Don't Know Where It Comes From, That Reserve Or Veneer Of British Niceness. But It Doesn't Bother Me If Other People Don't Spot The Passion. I Know It's There.

In The Old Days It Was Important, But Not As Important As It Is Today, To Keep Making Success After Success After Success. It's Terrifying Today.

If Somebody Can Act Out One Of The Books As A Play, If They Can See A Play, Film, Or Television Show That's Related, That Can Be So Stimulating For Them. Anything That Makes Children Engage And Think - And Love What The Story Is About - Can Only Bring The Most Enormous Rewards.

I Miss Singing Very, Very Much, But The Best Thing Is I Have Never Been Busier.
