I'm not sure what the future holds but I do know that I'm going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate. As my dad said 'Nic, it is what it is, it's not what it should have been, not what it could have been, it is what it is.'

It's taken me 40-something years, but I embrace the curl. My littlest daughter has the same hair. She likes it when my hair is curly, so I wear it for her.

Why do a crappy film role when you can do a meaty stage role? and ...I'm not small and curvy and I don't fit the prerequiste for small, passive, sexy chicks.

I like exploring life and its complexities.

I never read reviews at all. I'm proud of the work I did.

As an actor timing is important, especially as a mother with small children, so a lot is chance.

I'm reserved. I'm more of an introvert than an extrovert.
