I think people face that in any artistic field, this idea of: oh, I could do that, if I had the time.

There's a lid for every pot... You Just have to find yours. -Avery

I move between San Francisco and Paris... I have a wonderful beach house in California.

It's been very hard, after being mostly a mom, to develop an adult life of my own. And not being married anymore, I have to come up with challenges.

Love is messy. If you really love someone, you can't avoid the pain. People die, people leave, things change, but sometimes it all works

When you can bring yourself to write about it one day, you will find it all less painful. It is a catharsis of sorts, but the process can be brutal. Don’t do it until you’re ready.

I am endlessly busy, bringing up five young kids, and trying to keep up with the three older ones. I still spend most of my life driving car pools.
