I came across Mara Wilson’s Twitter account today. She is the former actress who played Matilda, amongst other things.

You can read the rest of the FAQ page here. I must admit I thought it sounded a bit stand-offish at first, but as I read the whole thing it was really funny and I felt like I’d learned a lot about Mara.
