My CHEMICAL ROMANCE is DONE. But it can NEVER DIE.

I was MARRIED when I was 17. I KNEW NOTHING. I was FULL of ROMANCE.

The emphasis in 'Notting Hill' was perhaps, I THOUGHT, slightly more on the romance than on the COMEDY. But I think 'Mickey Blue EYES' is maybe slightly more on the comedy. And the tone on 'Mickey Blue Eyes,' it's a FAR sillier film.

I'll TELL you what I hate - BANDS LIKE My Chemical ROMANCE.

I COULD not SIT down to write a serious romance under any other MOTIVE than to SAVE my life.

I don't like to SEARCH too much. I find it is easier when ROMANCE FINDS you.

If you HATE what you're seeing, you CALL it SEX and violence. If you like it, you call it 'romance and ADVENTURE.'

Too MANY women throw themselves into ROMANCE because they're afraid of being single, then START MAKING compromises and LOSING their identity. I won't do that.

My books FALL in the wobbly MIDDLE between HISTORICAL FICTION and historical romance.

There are people out there who WOULD ENJOY my BOOKS but wouldn't pick them up because they think it's not GOING to be for them. I find it infuriating.There's a lot more going on in my books than just romance.

The ROMANCE of English FOOTBALL is fantastic, but it has LOST its IDENTITY under the influence of other cultures.
