Judy Blume People Quotations

I meet people on the street or at book signings and they tend to treat me as if they know me, as if we're connected. It's great.

I didn't know anything about writers. It never occurred to me they were regular people and that I could grow up to become one, even though I loved to make up stories inside my head.

I'm a people person. I never get tired of watching people, especially young people.

Its all about your determination, I think, as much as anything. There are a lot of people with talent, but its that determination.

A good writer is always a people watcher.

I hate first drafts, and it never gets easier. People always wonder what kind of superhero power they'd like to have. I wanted the ability for someone to just open up my brain and take out the entire first draft and lay it down in front of me so I can just focus on the second, third and fourth drafts.

It's all about your determination, I think, as much as anything. There are a lot of people with talent, but it's that determination.
