For me, decorating perfection means eclectic styles and collections of beautiful things like pottery, pillboxes and match strikers.
From Jane Green
I am divorced, and one of the things I am tremendously grateful for is that my ex-husband and I made a decision to go through mediation. I knew a trial would drag on for years, would cost me everything, but worse, would be devastating for our four small children.
I write in the mornings once the kids have gone to school, taking my laptop and a coffee to a little writer's room in town where I plant noise-cancelling headphones on my head and get to work.
Having struggled with food issues and eating disorders myself, particularly when I was younger, I've long been interested in using it within my books.
Writing is a muscle that needs to be exercised every day: The more you write, the easier it becomes.
I adore children, but I was never that interested in new born babies. It's a terrible thing to have to admit, and you're not supposed to think that way as a woman, but everyone promises it's different when you have your own. It wasn't for me, though.
I have spent many a night in an Internet chat room, but not since I've been married.
I'd like to think I'm not quite so pretentious as to think my characters go off and live their lives once I've written the final page and switched the computer off.
When I first started writing, I was living in England and I had that uniquely English sense of sarcasm, which has definitely seemed to have left me. I am a naturalized American and my sensibility has become far more American.
As a teenager, you are still entirely wrapped up in yourself.
