I don't think a woman riding a motorcycle thinks of herself as doing something that has sex appeal. I think she's trying to replicate for herself an experience that she sees men having.

I usually get up between 7 A.M. and 8 A.M., have coffee, and go right to work. It's really important not to get sidetracked in the morning so I'm still in that dreamy state for my writing.

Subject matter is sort of overemphasized in the way books get discussed, I think.

I am such a gearhead. In my recording studio, I personally engineer and edit everything on computers.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.

Anybody against women, against the ERA, should never be voted into office again.
