Jodi Picoult Revealed

Jodi Picoult Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. Why do it when you can overdo it? Q. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you choose to be? A. Since it's snowing in NH -- on a beach. Q. What do you regret most? A. Not traveling around the world after college. I started working right away. I've gotten to see all corners of the globe thanks to my books - but I'm usually working too hard for it to be considered tourism! Q. What is your favorite occupation, when you’re not writing? A. I'm a big fan of baking - desserts, not bread. Q. Who is your favorite fictional hero? A. I'd say it's a tie between Scout Finch and Elizabeth Bennett. They're both young women who aren't afraid to use their voices to stand up for what they believe. And hey, if that gets you Mr. Darcy in the long run, who's gonna complain?
