I have this theory that people in Hollywood don't read. They read 'Vanity Fair' and then consider themselves terribly well read. I think I can basically write about anybody without getting caught.

I think I'm a born storyteller. Inspiration is all around me. I can read a newspaper article and come up with an idea for a book.

People are intrigued by fame, power and wealth and I think Hollywood is the only place where you get all three together.

Well, I think everything I've ever read contributes to the background from which I write.

I write about the American dream: if you set your mind to do something, you can do it. My fans know they're getting the real thing.
