I want a kiss to be so believable it gives the reader shivers.

So many wonderful books to write, and not enough hours in the day. An embarrassment of riches.

I feel that if you are blessed, or lucky enough, to be doing well, you should help others.

the pain of that first lost was still raw. You could deal with it, endure it, but never escape it.

Be nice, be nice, until it's time to stop being nice, then destroy them.

True power comes when others offer it to you and you merely accept it as a gift, not as the spoils of some personal war.

To gain your heart's desire you have to lose some part of your old life, your old self. To do that you have to have courage; without it, you can't make the leap. And if you don't make the leap you have only three choices: You can hate yourself for not taking the chance, you can hate the person from whom you've sacrificed your happiness, or you can hate the one who offered you happiness, and blame them for your lack of courage, convince yourself it wasn't real.
