The arts are very alive in Ireland, so that had its influence on me. But I consider myself European, really.
I like to be alone so I can write. But focus can hurt you. I don't want to be some stress casualty in early middle age.
In my last scene in 'Breaking Dawn,' Bella has just died and I run outside and crumple to the ground and just lose it. I'm bawling. That was my last scene of 'Twilight' ever and I definitely had some extra motivation.
