"Readers are what it's all about, aren't they? If not, why am I writing?"

Writing

"I would like to win the Pulitzer Prize. I would like to win the Nobel Prize. I would like to win a Tony award for the Broadway musical I'm now working on. Aside from these, my aspirations are modest ones."

Recognition

"It's a matter of style. The Evan Hunter style and the Ed McBain style are very, very different."

Style

"I enjoy what I do every minute of the day, even when the going gets tough. When I first began writing, I used to work at a desk in the bedroom, of a small development house. My three sons all under the age of 3 would come running in and out of the room every minute."

Age

"I never take ideas from the headlines. I feel that if a story is good enough, a real story that is, then it's already been covered by the media, and if it's not good enough, why would I want to bother with it?"

Creativity

"A detective sees death in all the various forms at least five times a week."

Death

"It seemed to me... that the only valid people to deal with crime were cops, and I would like to make the lead character, rather than a single person, a squad of cops."

People

"I try to keep all my novels in print. Sometimes publishers don't agree with me as to their worth."

Worth

"I've never been a cop nor hope to be a cop, thanks."

Hope

"I began using pseudonyms early in my career, when I was being paid a quarter a cent a word for my work, and when I had to write a lot to earn a living. Sometimes I had three or four stories in a single magazine without the editor knowing they were all by me."
