So much is man the slave of his heart that he will shut his eyes to what does not please him and believe all that he hopes.

During my life I have seen, known, and lost too much to be the prey of vain dread; and, as for the hope of immortality, I am as weary of that as I am of gods and kings. For my own sake only I write this; and herein I differ from all other writers, past and to come.

I'm inspired by watching and listening to people. For example, my first novel, The Scale, came to life after I overheard two women discussing their struggle with their weight at the gym.

It's [F1] your life. You're focused on just one thing and there's no room for anything else. Friends don't necessarily understand, because the way you think about life develops completely differently to how it does for normal people.

The one thing about me is that I don’t even know where I’ll end up, and I don’t know what I’ll be doing but I know that I’ll never really stop.

I'm not interested in what they have to say. I'm only interested in people that are interested in me for the right reasons.

I kinda flirt with everything and everyone, no matter if it's a tree or a coffee cup. I can't resist.
