People who know me, recognize a definite difference in my poise and in my personality, because I've grown.

I've been writing since I'm five years old. I've been writing books since high school - junior high, high school. I write every single day. I never thought I'd be published.

I'm a power fanatic. I like to own things, and have them be mine. Acting doesn't belong to you, if you're not the writer or the director.

There are some people who are very powerful who I will never name, because I want to be able to work in this town.

I've never been a model, I was an actress for like a minute, but I've always been a writer. That's where I'm going to stay.

There are a lot of things that I have not shared that I will never share. I do have a personal private life.

When I'm in an interview with someone who is not intelligent, but flat-out ignorant, idiotic and stupid, or just an ass, it really gives me a headache.
