I was writing blogs before work, then I was writing at work, and then I started writing books on the weekend because you just have that sort of energy in your 20s; it's wonderful.

Obviously there's a lot more to a TV show than just a book... I think adaptations are a bit tricky for the screenwriters because they're worried about upsetting the author.

Lipstick is always in, whether it's matte, creamy, glossy, and so on.

Black liner around the eye makes your eyes look smaller. I think you should reassess, if you're a really big black liner user, maybe even just doing the top line, not lower, or try a brown or a plum or even a navy.

I really like funny women. I'm drawn to women like Tina Fey and Amy Poehler and Kristen Wiig, Amy Schumer. They're writers, they're producers, they're actresses. They're brilliant, funny, excellent women.

You're allowed to work hard and have good things and do good things.

It's important to show each other your marriage is a priority.

I had a free-range childhood. We lived in town but with a cow, chooks, bees, and multiple veggie gardens so we could live self-sufficiently.

Marriage isn't always cupcakes and Jesus juice, but it's important to show each other your marriage is a priority and that you still love them.

An anniversary is a reminder as to why you love and married this person.

I'm bad; I wear trainers with everything: with a dress, skirts, all of that.

I think because Sport Lux has come in and leisure wear is a new thing, girls can sneak in hoodies and leggings and so on where they wouldn't normally - it has been proper legitimate fashion.

I guess the headline is that you mustn't tough it out assuming it's 'normal' to feel incredible pain when you're preggo or post-partum, or be afraid to try a new specialist or a new kind of specialist if you have pain that isn't getting any better.

I want anything I produce to be good for people kind enough to try it, but it's the momentum and process I enjoy most.

I wish I could do 50 projects a year.

I thought I'd have the baby, and get super fit and strong straight away.

I used to write fiction, non-fiction, fiction, non-fiction and have a clear pattern because I'd need a break from one style when going into the next book.

Life isn't always really glamorous and fabulous. It's about encouraging people to go back to natural beauty.
