I've gone to readings to see authors after meeting them on Twitter. And while there, I've found myself sitting next to still more writers who I met on Twitter, too.
My writing is sort of 'Sidney Sheldon meets Anne Tyler.'
I always wanted to be a writer.
People are often surprised that I am so upbeat. I'm always hearing, 'You're so light and funny, and your books are so dark and twisted.' There's a dichotomy. I like books that are dark and creepy. I don't control it - it's just what I gravitate toward.
No one in my family had ever even gone to college.
My personality has two sides: a very social side and a reclusive side. I love writing fiction, although I can't imagine ever being locked up in a room writing all the time.
All my friends are female, I've edited for a magazine for young girls for 15 years, I relate to women, and I'm very, very close to my younger sister.
I grew up in a two-bedroom house with my grandfather, my mom and dad and four kids. I slept on the couch or on the floor, and I always wanted to have my own space.

My dad was a cross-country truck driver.
I love being able to be a writer. That's what I moved to New York to be.

I write in the mornings. I get up every morning at about six in the morning and write until nine, hop in the shower and go to work. Nighttime I usually reserve for re-reading what I've done that morning. I would be lying if I said I stuck to that schedule every single day.
I usually don't write at night, but there are times where I wake up at 3 in the morning and write all night.
My goal is to write books that are quality books with very real characters and a gripping plot.
Everyone has a ghost story, or at least that's how it has always seemed to me.
My first day as an intern in the books department at 'Cosmopolitan' also happened to be the day the O.J. Simpson verdict was announced.
At the age of 70-something, Helen Gurley Brown was still a woman who knew how to get men to look at her.
I stayed at 'Cosmo' well beyond my internship, moving up the ranks over some 15 years to become books editor, then brand director, then editor-at-large - editing everything from an excerpt of Gore Vidal's memoir to writing some of those juicy cover lines myself.
I think I'm more sympathetic to writers, to the work and the struggle and the craft of it, than when I was in graduate school at NYU and was very judgmental.
I take stuff from real life and try to make a character out of it. And I try to live the world of the characters a little bit.
I don't write to a genre.
