I like to design my clothes; I design my jewelry, yeah. It's fun.

My biggest critics have never read me.

I write synopses after the book is completed. I can't write it beforehand, because I don't know what the book's about. I invent something for my publisher because he asks for one, but the final book ends up very differently.

I have written 20 books, and each one is like having a baby. Writing is not easy; some people want to write books but just can't put a story together. I can put together a story that interests both me and my readers.

People are intrigued by fame, power and wealth and I think Hollywood is the only place where you get all three together.

I am currently talking to one of the studios about making American Star as a TV series.

Agents are essential, because publishers will not read unsolicited manuscripts.
