The Only Time I Did

I Am A Kid In The Dressing-up Box At Heart.

I've Often Said The Most Difficult Things I Have To Say To People Through Humour. I Can Very Quickly Put Someone In Their Place With It. But We All Walk Away Unscathed Because There's Been Some Funnies Around It, And I'll Usually Make Sure That It Comes Back At Me.

I Have Turned Away From The Thought Of Writing Fiction In The Past Through What I Suppose Is, Actually, Fear. The Direct, Raw Invitation For The Reader To Come In And Explore My Imagination Is Fairly Scary For Me So I Have Busied Myself With So Much Else.

I Never Do Any Television Without Chocolate. That's My Motto And I Live By It. Quite Often I Write The Scripts And I Make Sure There Are Chocolate Scenes. Actually I'm A Bit Of A Chocolate Tart And Will Eat Anything. It's Amazing I'm So Slim.

You Have To Let Kids Live Their Own Lives And Make Their Mistakes, But It Is Difficult Now Because There Are So Many Things In Their Lives Which Weren't In Mine - I Never Had Facebook. And Some Of The Things I See Now I'm Appalled By. So I'm As Nosey About My Daughter's Life As I Can Be. I Tell Her, 'i'm All Over You, Whether You Like It Or Not.'
