Love...who needed love? As long as she had her books and her friends and an occasional hookup, she was perfectly content.
The first series I wrote, 'L.A. Candy,' was always meant to be a three-book series, so when I started out it was all outlined that way and by the time I was done with the third book, I had become so involved and the process and the stories, I was a little bit sad to be done.
My website inspired me to create my book club and provides me with a creative outlet where I can write about things that interest me. It's a platform where I can present ideas or new ventures and get feedback straight from the people who mean the most to me.
I love going on book tours because it's an opportunity to connect with the people that matter most to my brand.
When you're writing a book, you don't want it to be overly trendy because you want people to enjoy it for years and refer back to it.
I have always loved reading. Ever since I was a young girl I had a book by my bed and would get lost in the world of make believe.
Writing those books ['Beauty' and 'Style']was really eye-opening, as you realize just how much goes into beauty and fashion, and also how much I've learned over the years. I think both books are essential, as they don't really teach you one particular look that will go out of style next season, but rather tools and tricks you can use over the years.
None of my friends call me L.C. That was just a high school nickname, and nobody refers to me like that anymore.
I'm comfortable in front of the camera, but I can't act.
I'm just not a fan of the gym. In fact, I hate it. I understand loving the feeling you get after working out all those endorphins. But going there? It's the worst.
There's not one person that I say I want to look like.
I mean, it's fun to go out and do stuff in Hollywood, but if it was gone tomorrow, I really wouldn't be disappointed.
Kristin -- no matter how much you hate her, she's always fun to hang out with.
I was like, 'Oh, my God! Ashlee Simpson's here!' ... I was freaking out, pretending like I didn't see her. Then Ashlee Simpson walked right up to me and was like, 'L.C., love your show! I watch it every week with my friends!'
