I like motivational books, because I like the go-getting American spirit - your destiny is in your own hands, life is what you make it, donโt accept your limitations, jump before youโre pushed, leap before you look.
Louise MenschI was educated privately for free because I was a scholarship girl, 100% scholarship girl. I got it on my own merits. I would never dispute that I am a privileged person. Nevertheless, when I started work I made 11 grand a year. I got my book deal on my own, my father didn't write those books for me, I did all of that entirely on my own. I stood for parliament with the amazing support and help of my ex-husband, but it's not something that was handed to me like a peerage. I worked hard and was elected. So my achievements, such as they are, are my own.
Louise MenschI'm not embarrassed about the novels I wrote when I was younger, but I couldn't write them today because of my religion.
