few loved movies paul talk tries writer
You know what I loved about 'Sideways'? Well, the wine, of course. But it was one of the few movies in which being a writer was realistically depicted. I loved how the Paul Giamatti character tries so ineptly to talk about his book.
belt cleaning desire enjoy love rule seat symbolic wear
My love of cleaning is symbolic of my desire to rule the world... I always wear a seat belt because I enjoy being alive... and I like having two eyes, so yes to the safety goggles, too!
classical lessons love played since took
I took piano lessons as a kid, and my daughter's played piano since before she started kindergarten, so classical piano is something I really love.
letting-go breakup love-of-my-life
You asked why I couldn't forgive you," Nick said, very quietly, and I jumped a little. "It was because you were the love of my life, Harper. And you didn't want to be. That's hard to let go.
love feelings speech
"I don't want to lose you, I love you, and...and that's all I've got." As speeches went, it wasn't great. As feelings went...different story.
love-you men
Don't ever marry a man who loves his work more than he loves you.
tired love-is mad
Maybe love isn't just a bouquet of roses once in a while. Maybe it's just sticking it out, when it's hard, when you're mad, when you're tired.
men two love-your-life
The love of your life won't be the man you end up with, and you'll always compare the two.
moving unrequited-love sleep
I had to get over [him]. For months now, a stone had been sitting on my heart. I'd shed a lot of tears over [him], lost a lot of sleep, eaten a lot of cake batter. Somehow, I had to move on. [Life] would be hell if I didn't shake loose from the grip he had on my heart. I most definitely didn't want to keep feeling this way, alone in a love affair meant for two. Even if he'd felt like The One. Even if I'd always thought we'd end up together. Even if he still had a choke chain on my heart.
One thing about 'Thelma & Louise' we can't forget: Brad Pitt. Oh, yes.
alone book cellar cool entire kid sit sneak
Honestly, my entire childhood could be summed up with one word: Reader. I was always hunched over a book; in fact, I was the only kid in the world who got paler in the summer, because I'd sneak down into our cool, dank cellar and sit alone with a book for hours.
age genre romance though
After about the age of 13, I was a romance addict. Still am, though I read just about every other genre as well. The only thing I really shy away from is political thrillers.
movies satisfying trip
There's something so satisfying about road trip movies - and books!
folks industry publishing writers
Sometimes, I'll hear from other writers or folks in the publishing industry that my books are rule-breakers, which I take as a compliment.
