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 managed to take a family trip to the Bahamas and it was quite lovely.
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
You've got your hands full if you have three children under 2 years old.
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
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.
Jackie Collins
I write synopses after the book is completed. I can't write it beforehand, because I don't know what the book's about. I invent something for my publisher because he asks for one, but the final book ends up very differently.
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'm a storyteller I write what I want to read.
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
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
My biggest critics have never read me.
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
Love does not appear with any warning signs. You fall into it as if pushed from a high diving board.
Jackie Collins
As soon as I reach my destination I have a cup of tea, something to eat and then sleep for about 13 hours. I make that an absolute rule and I always feel fresh afterwards and never have jet lag.
Jackie Collins
A lot of people talk about writing. The secret is to write, not talk.
Jackie Collins
Your whole life is ahead of you. Don't you ever forget that.
Jackie Collins
I really fall in love with my characters, even the bad ones. I love getting together with them. They tell me what to do they take me on a wild and wonderful trip.
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.
