There is never just one thing that leads to success for anyone. I feel it always a combination of passion, dedication, hard work, and being in the right place at the right time.

I get very uncomfortable with people watching me.

I'm not a sexy person. I'm OK with it. I've never been the sexy girl. Whenever I've had a boyfriend, he's always been like, 'Oh, you're cute.'

Dating in Los Angeles can be hard, which makes it all the better when you meet a really nice guy.

I think that a lot of times, I trust people I shouldn't, and it turns out right, and it makes me feel a little better about it.

Scripts are corny and predictable. Real life is always better.

The first series I wrote, 'L.A. Candy,' was always meant to be a three-book series, so when I started out it was all outlined that way and by the time I was done with the third book, I had become so involved and the process and the stories, I was a little bit sad to be done.
