Its much like writing a screenplay with someone else and thats how we view it, I think.

That's the thing about us lawyers - if at all possible, we will consume each other.

I no longer teach law. But when I did I advised my students that they should never accept a case if it meant that by doing so you couldn't sleep at night.

It would have been easier to have a male protagonist, but I didn't want people to assume that Nikki Hill was me in her entirety because a lot of people just don't like me and I don't think they would be interested in reading about me, even in the fictional context.

I chose to go to law school because I thought that someday, somehow I'd make a difference.

I began writing in the 4th grade. As a matter of fact, I produced a play for the entire school. It was about Leif Ericson and the discovery of America.

I think that as I continue to write, my writing I hope will become more controversial and more provocative.
