Each of my books took roughly one and a half years to write. Some may have taken a shorter time to write the draft and a longer time to revise, while others were the opposite.

This isn't a fairy tale. It's New York City.

Although my other ambition was to be a musical theater star (and I would attend college on a voice scholarship), writing was never far from my mind.
