I look at my career and it's still hard for me to believe the way things turned out and how things happened. I've been so blessed.
I was never the ingenue or the pretty girlfriend of Tom Cruise in a movie. I didn't have that career, so I don't have to compete on that level.

All of my writing career is about how human beings negotiate dark matter.
My career as a magazine writer was largely prefaced on the idea of curiosity, to go on adventures and weasel my way into the lives of people that I admire.
