I'm Pleased To Have Outsold Great Writers.

I Think I'm Brave Because I've Made Decisions Based - I Hope Not Entirely Selfishly - On What I Think Is Right For Me To Do Next.

I Remember Watching Myself On Video And Being So Disappointed With Myself Because I Was Constantly Moving Around The Place And Laughing. I Thought, 'i Must Be So Much Louder Than I Think I Am. From Inside It Feels Fine.'

In Ireland Every Place You Visit And Every Person You Meet Has A Story. And They Love To Tell You Their Stories. Everyone Is Interested In Everything; In A Land Of Storytellers, You Will Never Be Bored.

I Have Great Family And Good Friends; The Stories I Told Became Popular, And People All Over The World Bought Them.

We're Nothing If We're Not Loved. When You Meet Somebody Who Is More Important To You Than Yourself, That Has To Be The Most Important Thing In Life, Really. And I Think We Are All Striving For It In Different Ways. I Also Believe Very, Very Strongly That Everybody Is The Hero/heroine Of His/her Own Life. I Try To Make My Characters Kind Of Ordinary, Somebody That Anybody Could Be. Because We've All Had Loves, Perhaps Love And Loss, People Can Relate To My Characters
