Christmas is never over,unless you want it to be... Christmas is a state of mind.
They're not chicks. They're ducks.
Dogs like everyone. Cats choose who to like.
Suck it up. This is the life you chose for yourself, so buck up and deal.
But you have to live in the present. You have to take the old and make it new -- that's my point.
If you breathed deep and set your mind to it, you could rise above your anger.
What I find cool about being a banned author is this: I'm writing books that evoke a reaction, books that, if dropped in a lake, go down not with a whimper but a splash.
I know I seem really friendly, but I'm a closet introvert.
I'm always drawn to the underdogs, to the people whose stories don't get told.
God, it sucks to disappoint your parents, even at forty-two years old.
Sometimes I worry I'm writing 'Fifty Shades of Grey' for teenagers, but I'm not.
When guys talk about sex, eyebrows don't get raised. It's different for girls.
Every time I write a new book, I want to push myself to try something different.
I don't shy from controversy. I'm telling stories, and I'll tell whatever story seems like it wants to be told.
