I started out writing stories because that's all I wanted to read, but now I don't know if I'll ever write one again.

I wanted to tell my story in a way I haven't done before, things I've been going through in my life.

I told my whole life story in my book.

There are definitely some stories worth telling and I think there's something to be said for telling your story.

If you're here right now in your life, your journey continues and you've lived to tell the story.

Every story about me is so heavy and dramatic. That's not how I do life. But that's the impression people have, and that's what keeps getting reiterated. As if I'm still stuck in all the muck of the past. And I am so not.

I'm just basically telling a story of my life.

You have only so many chances to tell stories. I didn't want to be forever wedded to one form of storytelling when there are so many out there.

So many people had been asking me to write an autobiography, or threatening to write my biography without any input from me, that I thought I'd better tell my story before other people told it for me.

We don't only tell stories when we set out to tell stories, our memory tells us stories. That is, what we get to keep from our experiences is a story.
