It moves at its own measured pace, for it has no reason to hurry. Tomorrow will come in its own good time.

If. A two-letter word for futility.

I worked in Hollywood as a reader and a would-be writer for about 6 years before I sold my first story.

Life is like a novel. It's filled with suspense. You have no idea what is going to happen until you turn the page.

Another woman approached me while I was having lunch at the Russian Tea Room in New York and told me that the reason she had become a lawyer was because she had read 'Rage of Angels'. To me, that kind of feedback has more meaning than any sales figures.

Stories had always been told about male genies coming out of bottles, but they were usually fat, old men. Never had the genie been a gorgeous woman, so that idea really appealed to me, and I created the series based on that premise.

Try to leave the Earth a better place than when you arrived.
