My laptop broke and because of the storm I could not get a new one. And so I've been promoting my book via iPhone.

What I try very hard to do is have an hour or so in the morning when I leave the house and don't have my phone with me. I'll go sit in a cafe and read and handwrite in my notebook and not be facing a screen. My head will be clear. I will be able to hear myself think. Because honestly for the rest of the day it's just screens, screens, screens.

Wouldn't that be nice if we could all afford to just freely pursue our dreams?

I love reading books that you can't put down, and they just take you over for a night or a weekend.

Most of my writer friends are women, and they're all extremely talented, so of course I think the state of contemporary fiction for women is pretty great. Which is to say there is a ton of amazing work out there. These women are writing hard. There's much to be said. We're on it, chief.

I had always loved life on the road. It was just something that appealed to me very deeply.
