So Youre Anne McCaffrey ?? ?? Im never sure what image readers construct of me from reading my books. But generally when Iget a response of quotYoure Anne McCaffreyquot I havent had the nerve to ask what they wereexpecting. Tones range from skepticism to deep disappointment and incredulity. Yet I dodescribe myself.. quotMy hair is silver my eyes are green and I freckle. The rest is subject tochange without noticequot -- the quotrestquot being the unrepentant bulk of me. ?? ?? Fortunately the faces of authors are not as widely displayed as those of more publiccelebrities. Often the jacket flap or the back copy includes a photo formal or informal ofthe author which very few people ever connect to the person sitting next to them on anairplane or walking in a mall. ?? ??

I remember the show vividly because during a commercial break I was sitting inthe audience waiting my turn when Ethel Merman suddenly swept in. She was there to promoteher autobiography. She did then swept out again. To my horror I was beckoned to come on theset then. ?? ??
