You're going to blow his socks off!
Nora Roberts
Don't 'honey' me in that southern-fried twang.
Nora Roberts
What kind of a maniac needed over five thousand plates?
Nora Roberts
I find I use the Internet more and more. It's just an invaluable tool. I do most of my research on the Net now - and certainly do the bulk of my communicating through email.
Nora Roberts
I don't want to be expected to fall in passively someone else's plans for me. That's what I don't want. I don't want it assumed that I simply don't have any personal goals or wishes of my own. Or any basic competence of my own. That's what I don't want!
Nora Roberts
There's no reward without work, no victory without effort, no battle won without risk.
Nora Roberts
I don't base any character on a real person, and really don't do composites either. I make them up.
Nora Roberts
You are who you are. I know you. You believe that? Yea but-- You're Eve Dallas. You're the love of my life. My heart and Soul. You're a cop, mind and bone. You're a woman of strength and resilience. Stubborn, hardheaded, occassionally mean as a badger, and more generous that you'll admit.
Nora Roberts
It's more than you think it can be, she heard herself say. It changes everything, and fixes everything that matters. Maybe you're never going to be the same, and maybe part of you is always afraid of what will happen if...but he's always going to be there. All you have to do is reach out, and he's going to be there.
Nora Roberts
Action, reaction, motivation, emotion, all have to come from the characters. Writing a love scene requires the same elements from the writer as any other.
Nora Roberts
I have no idea why it apparently takes three grown men to cook some hamburgers. One to cook, one to kibbitz, and one to insult the other two.
Nora Roberts
There was nothing like a Saturday - unless it was the Saturday leading up to the last week of school and into summer vacation. That of course was all the Saturdays of your life rolled into one big shiny ball.
Nora Roberts
Don't say hit and mountain in the same sentence.
Nora Roberts
I'm not putting up with this, she continued. You can't even go out and buy a solar system without worrying I'll fall apart. How are you supposed to get anything done? Actually, I'm not in the market for a solar system right at the moment.
Nora Roberts
Certainly the plagiarism, and dealing with the fallout of it, was the most difficult thing I've ever faced since I started writing.
Nora Roberts
I don't think you can write - at least not well - if you don't love stories, love the written word.
Nora Roberts
Eve engaged her On Duty sign and stepped out of the car. Immediately her ears were assaulted with a blast of music. Christmas carols pumped, full blast, into the air. She decided that people ran inside, ready to buy anything, just to escape the noise.
Nora Roberts
Love meant different things to different people.
Nora Roberts
[As a writer] you have to have the three D's: drive, discipline and desire. If you're missing any one of those three, you can have all the talent in the world, but it's going to be really hard to get anything done.
Nora Roberts
Every writer needs an editor. I don't care how good you are or think you are.
Nora Roberts
