Modeling is basically 'Buy more stuff! Don't you want some more stuff? It will make you look ten years younger and men will like you!' If I'd wanted to be a salesperson, I would have got a job selling.

It's taken me a long time to learn to accept the risks and just be willing to try it over and over again.

And I haven't read a lot of blogs but if someone writes about what they care about I'm sure it's interesting.

That's the wonderful thing about drama and writing and fiction: it's this wonderful shared experience that we all have. We can see into each other's lives.

I've learned that every working mom is a superwoman.
