I Never Know What's Going To Happen

My Father Read 'the New York Times,' My Mother Did Secretarial Work, We Had A Dog, We Had A Garden, I Had A Brother.

I Never Know What's Going To Happen In A Novel. I Don't Have A Plan Or An Outline.

I Never Wanted To Be Rich Or Successful Or Famous. I Just Wanted To Be Happy And Have Fun.

This Is A Fallen World. People Lie, The Truth Gets Distorted, And That's The Way It Is. What's For Dinner ?

I Was Extraordinarily Lucky. I Wrote A Book Because I Wanted To See If I Could Write A Mystery. Someone Nagged Me Into Sending It To A Contest, Which It Won, After Which I Was Offered A Two-book Contract, Thus Requiring The Writing Of A Second Book.
