Sometimes I can't read my own handwriting. That's a problem!

I like to read fiction best and I like to write fiction, too.

The best books come from someplace inside. You don't write because you want to, but because you have to.

Having the freedom to read and the freedom to choose is one of the best gifts my parents ever gave me.

I like one hair, tuna fish, the smell of rain and things that are pink. I hate pimples, baked potatoes, when my mother's mad, and religious holidays.

She wondered if all the firsts in her life would go by so quickly, and be forgotten just as quickly.

I don't believe in writer's block. There are good days when you're writing and less good days. I've learned that if it's not happening to walk away and return later. I doodle a lot and often get my best ideas with a pencil in my hand while I'm doodling. The problem is, sometimes I lose my doodles and that's bad!
