I can't sit and twiddle my thumbs. I have to start writing even if it's miserable some days.

I write thank-you notes the minute I throw the wrapping paper away.

I just started to put texting and phones in my books. I want my books to be read 20 years from now; I don't want them to be dated.

I think my mother characters have changed a lot since Sasha was born, just because I understand what a hard job it is now, and I'm coming at it from another angle - like you just love and care about this person so much, and just want to protect them from everything.

Teenagers are a great audience and they are fearless about asking what they want to know.

I always wished I could move around and switch schools. It was hard to have these radical transformations. You'd think, 'I will be a totally different person tomorrow,' but it never worked.

Each time, I think I'm never going to write another book. It never gets easier.

I'm always hopeful. I feel like I'm at the prom sitting against the wall waiting for someone to ask me to dance.

I love writing about the summer between high school and college. It's the last gasp of really being a teen.

I really just love to read, period, whether it be books or magazines or the back of the cereal box. It's the one thing I can always count on to calm me down, take me away and inspire me, all at once.
