I'm convinced that it's energy and humor. The two of them combined equal charm.

Heaven knows, I've exposed myself in my novels through the use of fantasy and imagination... now my new book is about what really happened to me... not my heroines.

It can't possibly last for years and browsing has its limits. Only a certain amount is healthy or wise.

I have only one reader - me. I'm the average reader. If I like it, that's all I worry about.

Surely the whole point of writing your own life story is to be as honest as you possibly can, revealing everything about yourself that is most private and probably most interesting for that very reason.
