One of Keller's earliest pieces of writing was "The Frost King" (1891). There were allegations that this story had been plagiarized from The Frost Fairies by Margaret Canby. An investigation into the matter revealed that Keller may have suffered from cryptomnesia, having once had Canby's story read to her, only to forget about it, although the memory had remained hidden in her subconscious[citation needed].
At the age of 23, Keller wrote her autobiography, The Story of My Life (1903), with help from Sullivan and her husband, John Macy. It includes letters that Keller wrote and the story of her life up to age 21.
Her spiritual autobiography, My Religion, was published in 1927 and re-issued as Light in my Darkness. It advocates the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg, the controversial mystic who claimed to have witnessed the Last Judgment and second coming of Jesus Christ, and the movement named after him, Swedenborgianism.
In total, she wrote 12 books and numerous articles.

I wanted to give some off-the-cuff silly answer like "I have no mouth and I must scream" (which was by Harlan Ellison) but wouldn't work here (she was deafblind, not mute).
The two books she wrote were "The Song of the Stone Wall" and "The Story of my life". Both are available for downloading from Project Gutenberg.

The one I can think of is The Miracle Worker and was based on the story of Helen's teacher, the one who taught her sign language and put up with her terrible behavior before she had a language.
