I love stories about women.

I'm still very interested in telling one-of-a-kind women's stories.

I think my story says that, when women are given the chance and the opportunity, that we can achieve a lot. We deliver.

I love telling stories; I always have, and I think women need to be more proactive about telling their own stories and sharing their points of view.

There's not a lot of stories for women told by women in a very real, true voice.

I am interested in stories that concern women.

So I constantly play women who are damaged and out of touch, who are seeking without knowing, or knowing without the skills to transform their lives. But then, that's really the fate of many women today.

I think there are many more stories still to be told about women.

Women's stories have been neglected for so long - unless they were queens. Exploring the history of women is a way of redressing that imbalance.

But I have always - ever since The Accidental Woman - written novels about individuals attempting to make choices in the context of situations over which they have no control.
