At the age of 16 I was already dreaming of having a baby because I felt myself to be an adult but my mum forbid it. Right now I feel like a teenager and I want to have fun for one or two more years before starting a family.

My problem is that I like technology but I always have to ask myself 'Now wait a minute will I actually have any use for this?'

I've been so entwined with technology since I was about 15 recording myself and multitracking and producing things on my own.

I forced myself to think what is the new concept and it became clear to me that it was risk not only in technology and ecology but in life and employment too.

Oh I love gadgets and I pride myself on keeping at the cutting edge of technology.

My major was Fine Arts and Education thinking I would become an Art Teacher. I couldn't visualize myself as an art teacher thinking how it wouldn't work.

I want to clear up a few myths about myself. People have written that I was a kindergarten teacher and a former Miss Texas and neither is true.

I count myself well educated for the admirable woman at the head of the school which I attended from the age of four and a half till I was thirteen and a half was a born teacher in advance of her own times.

As a teacher myself I've been in situations where parents come at you and sometimes parents come across like the teacher doesn't want the best for their kid and it can be really really hurtful.

When I was writing 'The Abstinence Teacher ' I really tried to immerse myself in contemporary American evangelical culture.
