desire is a beast that must be fed!

hate isn't healthy, it damages the hater more than the one who's hated!

For a lot of people, becoming an author is a change in occupation... they are coming from something that totally has nothing to do with this. If they are expecting to come into a room full of people praising them, then they are in the wrong place.

we can do anything when we decide to win no matter what!

Some people are just so happy to get published to, they sign anything. Next thing you know, they've signed over the rights to their book.

For some of us love comes into the room, kicks her shoes off, finds the most comfortable sofa, and lies down, rests, has no intention of going anywhere. For others love walks in smoking a cigarette, checking her watch every two seconds, jittery, with one hand on the doorknob, heart rate up, always in sprinter’s position, ready to run.

I wish I had met you first. Before we met them.
