I think that you have to do everything you can do to empower girls when they are young, from their education, to their successful independence, to their sexual self-knowledge.

I had a hard time publishing my books in the beginning of my career, because editors were afraid what people would think of THEM, personally, if their name was associated with me.

I'm writing a new book right now that is like an erotica manifesto.

As a young child my attention span was, as I remember it, rather short.

I had this wild imagination. I was never me. All my childhood photos, I'm in fancy dress, playing a Russian refuge or Marvelous Mad Madam Mim.

Kindness and a generous spirit go a long way. And a sense of humor. It's like medicine - very healing.
