I have just read the Wikipedia page about myself and am concerned. My birth date is incorrect, the description of my mother is inaccurate, and the title of one of my awards is garbled. Also, one paragraph about my writing is focused on one column I wrote ---out of 3000 --- and, as material is quoted out of context, gives an undue emphasis to controversial comments. As I have a new book about to be published and people may consult Wikipedia, I'd like to correct these errors quickly. Can any editor help me?

What's the title of the article? I can take a look at the article. SwisterTwister talk 22:58, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
I have looked at the article and found that there is no evidence confirming her birthdate is 1935, so I removed the part where it says 1935. I have also removed the sentence about your mother as I can't find any sources confirming that it was accurate. The Now news article claims her birthdate is 1939, is this correct?
