How I Write Clips(@PerellClips):Anne Frank edited her diary knowing that one day it would be published. "This sort of myth of this little girl lying on her stomach scribbling the thing, that was not the case." "She'd heard early on, they were listening to the radio in the annex, and some announcer came on and said, After the war, there's going to be a hunger for people writing about what their experience was during the war. And she said, 'My diary.' So, she went back and edited the diary several times." "She wasn't just some naive tween writing this little book. She was a writer." "I felt that I was speaking up for 12, 13, 14 year old girls everywhere who were so underestimated." -Francine Prose
