“I come from a very large Irish Catholic family.
People have asked me if I’ve been disowned for writing Maine [a novel about a large Irish Catholic family], but on the
contrary...I honestly think my books would not have become bestsellers if not
for the copies my extended family members purchased. They helped me sell the
most Girl Scout cookies in Massachusetts one year—just the same with books,
really.[Laughs]”—J. Courtney Sullivan, author of Maine and The Engagements,
quoted in Stephan Lee, “The Books of My Life,” Entertainment Weekly, Fall Movie Preview 2013
