“I wanted to be a landscape architect, but I trained as a teacher; I worked in publishing; I was a waitress.”
“Bringing my two children up while writing was just a part of life. I'd much rather have had their interruptions than been stuck in a sterile office. This way, I had welcome distractions. I had to load the washing machine, I had to go out and buy lemons.”
“Nothing beats weaving through the rush-hour traffic or whizzing past the eternal gridlock that is the Strand.”
