For me, I love Marc Anthony a lot. He's one of my dad's favorite artists, and I listened to him a lot growing up.

That messed me up, growing up in the public eye when I was a teenager. That's when everyone is trying to find themselves.

Growing up in Miami, being Cuban is integrated into our culture. When we greet anyone, we give them a kiss on the cheek.

I am proud to be a woman.

Humiliating events have a way of capturing the public's imagination. So it has been since antiquity, when gladiators were pitted against each other and the legions of Spartacus were crucified in endless rows on the way to Rome.

I think a lot of my appreciation for the Doors' music, which I love, originates with my discovery of them through seeing 'Apocalypse Now.' It's my second favorite film of all time.

There are casting directors with lots of imagination, but also some with not as much imagination.

I'm excited to see Cassie's fans and how they react to the ending of 'Clockwork Princess!' I love hanging out with readers and seeing the energy readers bring to a room: seeing so many people united in imagination is going to be wonderful.
