Jilly Cooper Book Quotations

When I started writing, I thought the only way to write books that were set in the country was to go and look at the primroses on Putney Common.

People who can write a book usually do.

I was so flattered that someone wanted me to write a book, I said I would. It was published in 1969.

I'd never have written the big books in London.

But I always seem to finish a book and then think, oh God, I've got to pay a tax bill, so I'd better write a novel, so I tend not to stop and learn word processing.
