Barbie’s disfigured. It’s fine to play with her just as long as you keep that in mind.

I have sort of a Zen body philosophy, I'm sort of like: we're one weight one day, we're one weight another day, and some day our body just doesn't even exist at all! It's just a vessel I've been given to move through this life. I think about my body as a tool to do the stuff I need to do, but not the be all and end all of my existence. Which sounds like I spent a week at a meditation retreat, but it's genuinely how I feel.

I thought I wanted to be a journalist or a novelist.

I sometimes want to make a book of every tattoo I wanted to get before I actually got a tattoo, because there were so many awful ideas and concepts.

I thought about ["Summer Sisters" ] so often as I was writing about these female characters who love each other and hated each other and were sort of in love with each other.

I think romantic comedy, when done right, is my favorite genre. It's just a genre that's very human.

I'm really lucky because I surround myself onset with people who I really trust to give me feedback, so I'm directing myself.
