I Try To Make My Characters Kind

If You Don't Go To A Dance You Can Never Be Rejected But You'll Never Get To Dance Either.

I Never Wanted To Write. I Just Wrote Letters Home From A Kibbutz In Israel To Reassure My Parents That I Was Still Alive And Well Fed And Having A Great Time. They Thought These Letters Were Brilliant And Sent Them To A Newspaper. So I Became A Writer By Accident.

I Do Try To Live Every Day As If It Were My Last, And It Has Worked For Me So Far.

Of Course I Wanted Children. Bright, Gorgeous, Loving Children. I Could Almost See Them.

I Discovered That Men Were Just Like Everyone Else, Really. They Liked You If You Were Good-tempered And Easy To Talk To. And Being A Big Girl Meant Other Females Trusted You More And Confided In You.
