My goal is two pages a day, five days a week. I never want to write, but I'm always glad that I have done it. After I write, I go to work at the bookstore.

Reading should not be presented to children as a chore, a duty. It should be offered as a gift.

Understand, I had absolutely no interest in writing; I wanted to be a Writer.

I am single and childless, but I have lots of friends and I am an aunt to three lovely children.
