E. L. James

I'm not a great writer.

I value my anonymity. I'm happy to come in on the tube or the train and watch other people reading 'Fifty Shades.'

If you've been married for 400 years, as I have, it's nice to experience first love again and you can vicariously through a book.

In my opinion, the Republican Party is the last on the list to care about the needs of old people and children and poor people.

I am more excited about 'Divinity of Doubt: The God Question' than any other book in my entire career, and I've had seven New York Times bestsellers, three of them reaching number one.
