More quotes by Judy Blume
Determination and hard work are as important as talent.
Judy Blume
I never thought about writing. I was married young, I was still in college, as we did then, and I had two babies before I was 25, and I loved them, and I loved taking care of them, but I was a little bit cuckoo, staying at home and not having a creative outlet.
Judy Blume
We must, we must, we must increase our bust.
Judy Blume
I was Little Miss Perfect. That's where all the secrets come in, because you know damn well you are not perfect, but you think your parents want you to be. And so you pretend.
Judy Blume
I love picture books. I think some of the best people in children's books are the ones who create their own picture books. I wish I could say I'm one of them, but I'm not.
Judy Blume
I like revising much, much better than getting down a first draft. The first draft is just getting the pieces to the puzzle. Then I get to put the puzzle together!
Judy Blume
[ Adult novels] was the world of grownups. There was nothing about teenagers.
Judy Blume
Some characters become your friends for life. That's how it was for me with Betsy-Tacy.
Judy Blume
I am a big defender of 'Harry Potter,' and I think any book that gets kids to read are books that we should cherish, we should be thankful for them.
Judy Blume
My only advice is to stay aware, listen carefully, and yell for help if you need it.
Judy Blume
There's no book or play or series or anything that speaks to everyone, because then it wouldn't speak to anyone.
Judy Blume
Kids should read whatever they want to read. So I'm hoping that just like 15-year-olds read Summer Sisters, I'm hoping that they'll read this.
Judy Blume
The only thing that works with writing is that you care so passionately about it yourself, that you make someone else care passionately about it.
Judy Blume
I wanted to write honest books for kids because I didn't have those when I was a kid.
Judy Blume
Summer Sisters is probably my least autobiographical book. The whole idea started with rowing down the pond. And I heard an explosion. I don't like sudden loud noises. They scare me. And then all these people came running down the hill and jumped in the water in their finery and a bride and groom was with them, and that's where it all started.
Judy Blume
The child from 9 to 12 interests me very much. And so, those were the years that I like to write about, when I'm writing.
Judy Blume
Sometimes I can't read my own handwriting. That's a problem!
Judy Blume
How we handle our fears will determine where we go with the rest of our lives.
Judy Blume
My mother was my greatest fan.
Judy Blume
It's strange, but when it comes right down to it I never do fall apart--even when I'm sure I will.
Judy Blume
