My mother was my greatest fan.
When you ask, did writing change my life? It totally changed my life. It gave me my life.
We are friends for life. When weโre together the years fall away. Isnโt that what matters? To have someone who can remember with you? To have someone who remembers how far youโve come?
I'm a people person. I never get tired of watching people, especially young people.
I don't necessarily want to talk about a book that I read. Even when I love it.
I meet people on the street or at book signings and they tend to treat me as if they know me, as if we're connected. It's great.
