Happy birthday...and happy life, msbelle!
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Because books.
The very same, Sophia. She's had probably a dozen set visits by now, she tweets with all the writers and actors, and she's been in at least one episode (as an extra).

She was in an episode? That's hysterical.
And she's a ficwriter. Too much.

She was in a S7 episode called "Slash Fiction" (if you can stand it), and she's visible in a diner booth during a key scene.

Amy, how old is she now? I mean she wrote The Outsiders when she was 16. So is she in her 50s?

I guess? I'd say at least mid-50s? She has grown kids.

Oh I didn't realize she wrote that so young, I was envisioning someone much older. Like your grandma writing fanfic.
"Honestly, if you see her with a caffeinated beverage, knock it out of her hand, onto the ground. Tell her, 'This is why you're going to die alone, with your cats, and get your face eaten off.'""Yes, you're right, I will."
Wait, CAFFEINE is why I'm going to die alone with cats?? How did I miss this memo? And does it still apply in Seattle, or just among Mormons?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's a slippery slope, meara. First it's a Coke, then who knows what. (No, seriously, who knows what?)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
My old boss at Houghton Mifflin, who was a Starbucks fiend and the kind of smoker who stands outside the building in subzero temperatures, was aghast that I actually took a quarter or half of a No-Doz pill in the morning after I got to work.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
First it's a Coke, then who knows what. (No, seriously, who knows what?)
Step three
profit cats!
