Having children just puts the whole world into perspective. Everything else just disappears.

I look very different from how people expect me to be... Clearly they think I'm a great big fat viking.

My husband is not a jealous person in any way.

For me, they definitely made it more challenging. The comfort zone factor really kicked in between Leo and I, and I just think that's because we know each other so well. We've known each other since we were 20-years-old.

Having just had a baby, I'm not going to be thinking about my arse.

I'm often moved by the circumstances around some of my characters, but I don't think I've actually cried watching myself.

I think what you feel like as a teenager never really goes away. If you were teased for being fat or thin or having bad teeth, you're always insecure about that particular area of yourself. So I've never thought of myself as any kind of beauty, iconic or otherwise.
