I try to write about the stuff that torments us all.

I always try to write about believable people.

My kids are more precious to me than anything. I'm with them all day, and I write all night.

In my late teenage years, I developed a real passion for it, and wrote a lot of poetry.

Perfume is like a personal signature, which is why I like to mix my own. For years I've paired Femme by Rochas with Shalimar and love the results.

You don’t know how lucky you are, my dear. Don’t waste it with regrets of the places and people you have lost. You have a lifetime to fill, so many good times and good years and great people ahead of you. You must rush to meet it.

Don't worry about it. The right thing will come at the right time.
