God forbid that women have fantasies.

If you've been married for 400 years, as I have, it's nice to experience first love again and you can vicariously through a book.

God forbid that women have fantasies.

Men aren't really complicated. They are very simple, literal creatures. They usually mean what they say. And we spend hours trying to analyze what they've said, when really it's obvious.

It's much easier to wear your pain on the outside.

All a writer wants is to be read, and people are so flattering and lovely. I mean, there are witches out there as well. But most are so kind.

Sometimes I wonder if there's something wrong with me. Perhaps I've spent too long in the company of my literary romantic heroes, and consequently my ideals and expectations are far too high.
