Answer:

She is implying that the works she writes are not intended for a specific ethnicity or person, just like the works of C.S.Lewis.

In this comparison she claims that Lewis probably did not write for a girl, she specifies, in Karachi, but wrote global works that reached people of different ethnicities and cultures, just like her.
