“Every writer hopes or boldly assumes that his life is in some sense exemplary, that the particular will turn out to be universal.”

“Until the Women’s Movement, it was commonplace to be told by an editor that he’d like to publish more of my poems, but he’d already published one by a woman that month ... this attitude was the rule rather than the exception, until the mid-sixties. Highest compliment was to be told, “You write like a man.””
