Was glad to see her handwriting on the envelope, because it said, even without the letter itself, that she was better. Will see her this winter if she is in New York.   Willa Cather   [Stout #747]

Sorry to hear about her tonsils. Off to Arizona soon. Hopes she will like the new book to be published in September [ My Mortal Enemy ]. An experimental form.   Willa Cather   [Stout #828]

"For Carrie Sherwood. This was the first time I walked off on my own feet—everything before was half read and half an immitation [sic] of writers whom I admired. In this one I hit the home pasture and found that I was Yance Sorgeson [Sorgenson; Webster County farmer] and not Henry James.   Willa Cather   [Stout #922]

Should never look for a subject but let the subject find her. Imagination merely sets free one's memories and feelings. Going north soon. Enjoyed seeing her.   Willa Cather   [Stout #935]

Can't remember if she ever wrote about Elizabeth's mother's surgery. Life has been very disordered. Has been at Grand Manan, off the coast of New Brunswick, at the house she and Miss Lewis have there. Expects to go to Quebec in a few weeks. It has been a hard year. Likes the essay on herself in Whipple's book Spokesmen [R. K. Whipple, Spokesmen: Modern Writers and American Life, 1928], which has a fine essay on Henry Adams. Greetings to her mother. P.S.: Likes Thornton Wilder's new book [probably The Bridge of San Luis Rey, 1927].  Willa Cather   [Stout #944]

Seldom writes short stories and does not like writing essays about her own writing, so will not contribute to the volume he is editing.   Willa Cather   [Stout #945]

Was in Boston when he was on the radio, so didn't hear. Appreciates his interest in her work.   Willa Cather   [Stout #947]
