Ann Coulter is not the problem - she is a symptom of the problem.

They are all declared enemies of the state by the president. Just because they published a letter saying, "stop killing each other and begin talking for a peaceful resolution."

I can't feel good about a factory overseas polluting the air for something with my name on it. I'm okay with music - because it's digital or a CD. My music is my emotion in a bottle.

I got a rejection letter from an editor at HarperCollins, who included a report from his professional reader.

I poured out my whole heart in it, never looking back to see what I'd said because I was afraid cowardice would make me stop.
