The part of my writing I find the most rewarding is when people write to me or speak to me in public to tell me how his or her life has been changed by my books.

Not now.It's too late.It was always too late.

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

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

When you write a movie, you have a hundred collaborators. But when you write a novel, it's yours.

If you don't know why,I could never explain it to you.

...but ready or not,life goes on.
