I've never been on safari because I've got a phobia of bugs. I just don't want things crawling on me when I'm sleeping. It's a shame given my passion for big cats. But I really enjoy photography, so I'd love to photograph leopards in the wild some day.

My weakness is wearing too much leopard print.

I write about the American dream: if you set your mind to do something, you can do it. My fans know they're getting the real thing.

Love does not appear with any warning signs. You fall into it as if pushed from a high diving board.

For a perfect holiday I need my iPhone and my writing tools. I write all my books by hand so black felt pens and yellow legal pads are a must. And my eyebrow pencil. I'm very low-maintenance.

I'm a storyteller; I write what I want to read.
