A twin flame of mine - 2

Agatha Christie (1890 - 1976), s/a, s/d 

“I myself was always recognized, though quite kindly, as ‘the slow one’ of the family.  The reactions of my mother and my sister were unusually quick - I could never keep up.  I was, too, very inarticulate.  It was always difficult for me to assemble into words what I wanted to say…. It was not until I was over twenty that I realised that my home standard had been unusually high and that actually I was quite as quick or quicker than the average. Inarticulate I shall always be. It is probably one of the causes that have made me a writer.”
