“A diva is someone who is a perfectionist, who does her best in her cra...” — Patti LaBelle Quote

A diva is someone who is a perfectionist, who does her best in her craft.

Whenever I go out, so many people who respect me ask me what to do in a certain situation. A lot of times, I didn't know the answers because sometimes I was going through the same sort of thing. But then later on, I would think of things that people told me.

I truly respect the people who are working. If they want an autograph from Patti LaBelle, they are going to get it. I have never separated myself from them. I never think you are better than the next one.

I don't tweet, Twitter, email, Facebook, look book, no kind of book. I have a land line phone at my home - that's the only phone I have. If my phone rang every day like everyone else around me, I would lose my mind.

I did 'Damnation' on USA, and hopefully I keep picking up smaller roles and learn the craft.

Work on your craft, and your career will come. Work on your community, and your career will come. But just work on your career, and you'll have neither a craft nor a community.

You just want to hone your craft, whatever it may be.

I know my mindset. I know how hard I work at my craft.

Art can't be taught; passion can't be taught; discipline can't be taught; but craft can be taught. And writing is both an art and a craft.
