I think my books come out very visual, which is an obvious consequence.

I'm a rich man. To have everything you need is the definition of affluence.

I was in television drama, which is a first cousin to the movies, and I trust myself to make the right decisions.

Hit them fast, hit them hard, and hit them a lot.

Everything you could want - action, suspense, character and setting, all floating on the easy lyricism of a fine writer at the top of his game.

I had a brief theater background and loved the backstage world there's more backstage work in television, so I saw a job advertised and applied, and got it. That was back in 1977, when getting jobs was easy.

I do a little fact checking now and then. Other than that its impact is simply that email has revolutionized communication for me, and my website has built up a community of readers, which is a lot of fun.
