I want every girl in the world to pick up a guitar and start screaming.

I get nervous about press and about being rejected or disappointing myself.

That which is imagined need never be lost.

My mentors are people like Cameron Crowe and Carrie Fisher.

I'm a catalogue artist: I compete with Bob Dylan.

I'm a survivor, at least that's what everyone tells me.

I have a deathly fear of mediocrity and that nips at my heels and gets me into a lot of trouble.
