I'm an escapist kind of writer.

I didn't have a sweet tooth, but I liked butter, and I liked sauces, and I liked wine and curry and cheeses.

I'm mainly an airport author, and if you're trying to take your mind off the journey, you're not going to read 'King Lear.'

It was so silly to try to define things by words. What did one person mean by infatuation or obsession and another mean by love. The whole thing couldn't be tidied away with neat little labels." - Lena Gray

The most important thing to realize is that everyone is capable of telling a story.

I'm pleased to have outsold great writers. But I'm not insane - I realize I am a writer people buy to take on vacation.

You can't lay down laws for what people think and hope.
