Ideas are all around me. If I wasn't interested in them myself, I don't think anyone else would be either.
From Jackie Collins
I write about real people in disguise. If anything, my characters are toned down-the truth is much more bizarre.
The husbands, who sometimes have another family who's grown, are going, Now I can spend time with my baby. Oh yeah, I bet your other family is really thrilled.
Brittany Murphy... who knows if she's going to be around. Kirsten Dunst, I think she's really boring. Reese Witherspoon? She can open a movie.
Where was Paris Hilton a year ago? She's a fabulous character to write about.
I write synopses after the book is completed. I can't write it beforehand, because I don't know what the book's about. I invent something for my publisher because he asks for one, but the final book ends up very differently.
