If you change the way you tell your own story, you can change the colour and create a life in technicolour.

And I am not one of those women who trips twice over the same stone.

I'm not willing to sign a contract. They want everything. They want the rights to do the movie and everything else they can think of, forever. There's no limit to the contract. In this universe and universes to be discovered - I'm not making this up - this is in the contract.

What happens in the world affects me. Sometimes, that's part of the writing.

I don't want posterity, I don't want anybody to remember me in any way. I don't care about that because I'll be dead. I think the spirit will move to some other state.

I'm not a fan of mysteries, so to prepare for this experience of writing a mystery I started reading the most successful ones in the market in 2012. And I realized I cannot write that kind of book. It's too gruesome, too violent, too dark; there's no redemption there.

If you change the way you tell your own story, you can change the colour and create a life in technicolour.
