If you write nonfiction, a historical account of what really happened, first of all, it's always White men who do that and you don't have the voices that are really interesting to me, of the people who are not sheltered by the big umbrella of the establishment.

We only appreciate what we have when we lose it.

My life is about ups and downs, great joys and great losses.

You can't find someone who doesn't want to be found.

I love my dog unconditionally, but never the man I'm sleeping with.

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

My books are based on emotions, feelings, relationships. In these areas women are experts, so it's not strange that the main characters of my novels are females.
