Quote

I've really written my books for my husband and our family. They've brought us closer together by allowing us to discuss things that were unspoken for so long.

I've always wanted to be a writer. Ever since I learned to read, I've wanted to share stories with others the way my favorite writers shared their stories with me.

I was the typical little sister who wanted to be just like her older brother. When I was growing up, my brother wrote phenomenal stories, so I wanted to write them, too.

I'm a writer. I just love telling stories.

I love writers. All of my best friends are writers.

I'm attracted to stories that deal with the family and what it's like to be a member of that family, whether it's together or apart, given the pressures that are put on it by the outside world.

I love stories. I just enjoy telling stories and watching what these characters do - although writing continues to be just as hard as it always was.

It's a luxury to be able to tell a long form story. I love novels, and I love to have a long relationship with characters.

I wanted to write stories I wanted to read, that I and my friends related to.

Both my mother and I have close groups of friends that include other writers, and these friendships are very important to us.
