If you wrote a page a day, at the end of the year you would have a book. Whether it's any good or not is beside the point, but you would have a book, instead of just talking about it all the time.

More quotes by 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 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
My biggest critics have never read me.
Jackie Collins

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
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 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
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
Love does not appear with any warning signs. You fall into it as if pushed from a high diving board.
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
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.
