I'm Grateful For The Life I Have.

I Am A Master Of Fiction. I Am Also The Greatest Crime Novelist Who Ever Lived. I Am To The Crime Novel In Specific What Tolstoy Is To The Russian Novel And What Beethoven Is To Music.

There's None With Me, Although You've Seen Me Before - I'm Outrageous.

I Am A Writer. I Could Not Afford To Take 15 Months Off From My Writing Career To Play Detective.

I Think The Great Unspoken Theme In Noir Fiction Is Male Self-pity. It Pervades Noir Movies.

I Like To Have Fun Out There. I Work Hard, And Then I Get To Cut Loose And Go Out And Tour, And I Enjoy It. I Like To Go Out And Meet The People. I Love To Sell Books.
