TLS, one page on the reverse of a 8.5 x 11 form letter, no date. Letter to Roger Harris, in part: "You ask if I can tell you what I consider my greatest satisfaction during my career: oh, dear, this is a difficult question! My greatest satisfactions are so overlapping that it's impossible for me to tell them apart. It is, of course, a tremendous satisfaction to me to 'be a writer,' since this has always been my aim, ever since I could hold a pencil. My career has had its fair share of vicissitudes, and A Wrinkle in Time was turned down by a good many publishers, so it was particularly pleasant to have it win the Newbery Medal. But it is the writing itself that is the greatest satisfaction, here, and, when I went through a period of thinking that this book would never be published I came through to the difficult but very important conclusion that even if I were never published again I was a writer; to write is my vocation; and I would always write." In fine condition, with light show-through from the form letter on the reverse.
