The University of Texas at Austin interviews Jo Giese

Here is an excerpt from The University Of Texas at Austin interview of Jo Giese

I don't know that I ever "discovered" that I wanted to be a writer. I just was a writer. When I was in elementary school I wrote articles that I submitted to children’s magazines. They weren't published, but I loved writing them. Unfortunately, I didn't know how to type, so my mom typed my stories and when she changed a word or two, I was furious. Those were my words. How dare she edit and revise as she typed! Even in elementary school I felt proprietary about my work!
