Originally I considered myself a singer.

What I like about being alone is being able to do whatever you want and it's for yourself.

Getting the pretty back is about getting back in touch with your essential self: the part of you that knows what you really want.

I write in bed, too. I find it very comforting. I want to sort of, like, crawl in a fetal position if I have to.

Not all women write the same. But I don't understand why the model is that you're supposed to write like a man, and that means you're a real writer.

The wonderful thing about books is you never run out of them, you can just keep going. So I'm always finding new writers, or old writers that I just happen not to have read.

I think when people hear about a celebrity writing a book of any kind, the assumption is that it was dictated to a ghostwriter.
