I am so proud of being a Paralympian because I think the Games are a very good platform for disabled persons to perform themselves.

I realized that 'performing' was what I wanted to do when I did my first professional gig as a dancer with my company 'Synergy' in Canada. I was overwhelmed with how it felt to perform in front of an audience.
Some actresses seem to thrive on chaos, and I've often wondered if they felt they had to be that way in order to perform well?

I think Britain has this tradition which suggests that if you make the readers laugh too much, you can't really be serious. Whereas, I think one of the functions laughter can perform in a book, as in life, is that it's a reaction to genuine horror.
