I've discovered writers by reading books left in airplane seats and weird hotels.

Practically any Western has a homesteader in trouble, and a mysterious rider shows up off the range, solves the problem over two or three days, and then rides off into the sunset.

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

I have to warn you. I promised my mother, a long time ago. She said I had to give folks a chance to walk away.

My mother still calls me Jim and that is about it. Everyone else calls me Lee. My wife calls me whatever.

I'd been a thriller reader all my life.

No, I'm a man with a rule. People leave me alone, I leave them alone. If they don't, I don't.
