"I spent the first twenty years of my writing career preparing for the mystery genre, which is my favorite literary form."
Career
"I focus on the writing and let the rest of the process take care of itself. I've learned to trust my own instincts and I've also learned to take risks."

Books
"Having reached the halfway mark in the alphabet, my prime focus is on writing each new book as well as I can."
