The fact that my female characters have strong personalities but are also physically attractive probably reflects the women I've known in my life.

I'm a woman. I have a right to change my mind.

I like to write about women who are talented and capable, but most important, retain their femininity. Women have tremendous power - their femininity, because men can't do without it.

God cannot take sides; for He is in all of us. We are all a part of Him, and when we try to destroy Him, we destroy ourselves.

Every man is a prisoner, and the greatest irony of all is to be the prisoner of another man.

Don't give up. There are too many nay-sayers out there who will try to discourage you. Don't listen to them. The only one who can make you give up is yourself.

A blank piece of paper is God's way of telling us how hard it is to be God.
