I always think that in a big city, anything is possible, including reinventing yourself.

Never be with anyone you couldn't imagine yourself being able to live without.

I had a nervous breakdown at 17 when my first love left me, and he was a typical bad boy, albeit a charismatic one, with a string of broken hearts trailing behind him.

Open adoption, when it works, is fabulous. But when it goes wrong, it's so traumatizing for everybody.

There have been years where I've had to take a real job and I wrote during slow times and lunches. I think never forgetting how lucky I am to be able to do something I love has really fueled me.

I am an indifferent cook but I can make pie.

People love stories. They need stories.
