Friendly letter commenting on her pleasure "about the TLS" [i.e., the Times Literary Supplement (21 Jan. 1977) in which she was named one of the most underrated writers in England], her activities with the RNA [i.e., the Romantic Novelists' Association for which she was an awards judge], the rejection of one of her novels by publisher Robert Hale, her "slight if grudging respect for those who manage to make it, however appallingly bad some of them are," and the death of writer Garry Hoff.

2 p. on 1 leaf. Holograph signed.
