[On the writers she admires:] I prefer dead writers, because I don't see them at parties.
Smoking is, as far as I'm concerned, the entire point of being an adult.
I'm very lazy, I hate to work.
When I'm supposed to be writing I clean my apartment, take my clothes to the laundry, get organized, make lists, do the dishes. I would never do a dish unless I had to write.
No one I knew talked about money. It's not an area of interest.
I just can't smile at people for money.
