Quote

I'm not shy or reclusive. I just spend my time with people rather than journalists.

I'm shy, but not on a one-to-one basis. Over the years, I have become acclimatised to a bit of publicity.

I'm not shy, exactly, but I am private. I don't like to talk about myself. I had to learn - I was interviewed for print, radio and even TV.

I make friends faster and easier than journalists.

I always like to have a buffer between me and journalism in general. Not just a reporter, but journalism.

I think the key to being a journalist is getting your subject to feel comfortable enough to talk about stuff they want to talk about and the stuff they like and don't like, and still feel comfortable about it.

I don't like journalists and I hardly ever talk to them.

I'm a journalist; I love doing interviews, and I hope that will continue.

I love almost everything about my work except conferences. I am too shy in front of an audience. But I love signings and having eye contact with a reader who already knows my soul.
