Biography
Flagg has spoken publicly about being dyslexic. She has said she was greatly challenged as a writer because she "was severely dyslexic and couldn't spell, still can't spell. So I was discouraged from writing and embarrassed." Her burgeoning writing career was put on hold for much of the 1970s, but Flagg overcame her fear and completed several novels and screenplays.
At one time, Flagg was reported to have been the partner of author Rita Mae Brown but Flagg has never acknowledged any conjecture about her private life.
