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

The main thing is that you have a good editor - one that believes in you and who will give you the feedback that you need to produce a good book.

I dont know how the editors are going to take it or how it may be received. But to some extent Im hoping that with the next book, when people pick it up and read it, it will scare the pants off of them.

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

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

Writing is hard work, but a lot of fun, too. It allows me to live out some of my fantasies.

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.
