The fascinating thing about food is that if you have issues with it, you have to face it every single day.

In 1998, I started a blog, something I could control very easily and update at my own whim.

I've just always written, and always considered myself a writer. I wrote my first story when I was five. There was nothing else I wanted to do or be.

And we all get mired in the bullshit, the personality quirks, the personality disorders (ours and everyone else's), the jealousy, the disappointment, the blocks, the financial struggle, our egos, I do it too, I do it too, but if you can't remember it is all about the work and nothing else then I can't help you and you can't help yourself and you will lose. I promise you. You will lose.

In the wintertime I like macaroni and cheese.

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

With apologies to all my past boyfriends, I never loved a man the way I loved my old apartment.
