After I lost my fiance, it seemed like it would be better to always be alone than to risk being hurt again.

I'm all about the crockpot.

If I was to listen and pay attention to everyone that criticized me, I'd stay home under the bed.

Well, of course I think people can be forgiven. But our justice system is not set up to dispense forgiveness. You can go to the local priest for that.

I did marry, I did get pregnant, but as I was giving birth, my daughter and I almost died. We were rushed to the hospital. I had an emergency cesarean and in that moment, in the emergency room, I felt my grandmother come to me. She was with me and when my daughter was born, instead of naming her Hailey, I named her Lucy after my grandmother. Hailey lives in the pages of my books.

Court TV will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will always look back at my time there with great gratitude and affection.

I don't expect everybody to like me. If you try to please everybody, by changing your position and your personality, every time you do that you lose a little bit of yourself.
