BA's Notes from the Sidelines:
- Self-belief: experience rejection then feel rage or disappointment then think, "I am gonna make it." If somebody says you can't, show them you can.
- Women are famous for being selfless and putting their families first. Where in your life can you have something that's yours?
- It's better to try and fail than never to have tried at all.
- Since fact is stranger than fiction, it makes sense that women readers find themselves in her books, and fortunately have found the courage to act.
- BA wrote The Dilemma because she felt people should ask themselves, "How far would you go to protect your loved ones and give them a few more hours of joy?"
- Take time for yourself and do what makes you happy.
- Learn to say, "NO."
