More quotes by Jackie Collins
Ideas are all around me. If I wasn't interested in them myself, I don't think anyone else would be either.
Jackie Collins
I don't believe in writing anything that I don't know about or haven't researched about personally. I like to transport the reader to places, and in order to do that I have to do the research.
Jackie Collins
I have this theory that people in Hollywood don't read. They read 'Vanity Fair' and then consider themselves terribly well read. I think I can basically write about anybody without getting caught.
Jackie Collins
I don't plan my books. I don't know what's going to happen. That's why I could pick up any one of my 30 books and I could continue the story on.
Jackie Collins
For a perfect holiday I need my iPhone and my writing tools. I write all my books by hand so black felt pens and yellow legal pads are a must. And my eyebrow pencil. I'm very low-maintenance.
Jackie Collins
If you want to have great sex, find a partner who really turns you on. Pills are merely props, and props can turn out to be a big drag.
Jackie Collins
My weakness is wearing too much leopard print.
Jackie Collins
I write about real people in disguise. If anything, my characters are toned down-the truth is much more bizarre.
Jackie Collins
I woke up last night and thought: 'I must call somebody in my next novel Casablanca.' It's such a great name. I don't want to call anybody Fred or Jane or Susan, so when three people get into bed together, you don't know who they are.
Jackie Collins
I try not to bore my readers.
Jackie Collins
I have written 20 books, and each one is like having a baby. Writing is not easy some people want to write books but just can't put a story together. I can put together a story that interests both me and my readers.
Jackie Collins
Whatever you have a passion for, then you must do. If you want to write, write about something you know about.
Jackie Collins
My biggest critics have never read me.
Jackie Collins
If you want to achieve your dreams, you must follow them, and the best way to follow them is not to think about wanting to be very rich, but to think about doing something that you really want to do.
Jackie Collins
I managed to take a family trip to the Bahamas and it was quite lovely.
Jackie Collins
You've got your hands full if you have three children under 2 years old.
Jackie Collins
I'm a storyteller I write what I want to read.
Jackie Collins
All of my books have the potential to become movies, it's just a question of finding a studio who wants to get behind me and put up the money to make the movie.
Jackie Collins
Where was Paris Hilton a year ago? She's a fabulous character to write about.
Jackie Collins
I love people-watching at the clubs in Los Angeles, where girls make fools of themselves and guys pay thousands of dollars for a couple of bottles of vodka just so they can get a table. It's quite a scene.
