girl princess life-is-like
Every girl pretends she is a princess at one point, no matter how little her life is like that.
moving things-in-life time-to-move-on
Those who do not know how to see the precious things in life will never be happy.
kids men breathing
Anyone else feel like that? Like your life's a big act. Like you're trying to be a man when you're just a scared kid, trying to keep under control when you really want to scream, cry, or maybe hit someone. Ever feel like you're breathing underwater and you have to stop because you're gulping in too much fluid.
fashion princess
I am a princess. I do not follow fashions--I make them.
doctors beast cures
Good to know: Doctors can't cure you of being a beast.
years law different
I was a lawyer for about ten years. The law teaches one to see things from all different angles.
writing contemporary-fiction want
I write contemporary fiction, and that is what my readers want to read.
book thinking able
Since I've written many of my books from a less-than-sympathetic viewpoint, I think that being able to see things from all sides is a useful talent.
book taken writing
Each of my books took roughly one and a half years to write. Some may have taken a shorter time to write the draft and a longer time to revise, while others were the opposite.
fun kids play
I wrote poetry, journals, and, especially, plays for the neighborhood kids to perform. I had an ordinary, happy childhood. Nothing much was going on, but I had fun.
stars ambition writing
Although my other ambition was to be a musical theater star (and I would attend college on a voice scholarship), writing was never far from my mind.
missing-someone missing
You shouldn't miss someone who don't miss you, right?
beauty people looks
People make such a big deal about looks, but after a while, when you know someone, you don't even notice anymore...
soul feelings beastly
That's what true love should be like-the person should be part of your soul and you should know what they're feeling all the time.
