Music is like a huge release of tension.

It's probably foolish to expect relationships to go on forever and to say that because something only lasts 10 years, it's a failure.

I'm tall, fat, rather bald, red-faced, double-chinned, black-haired, have a deep voice, and wear glasses for reading.

Most detective story readers are an educated audience and know there are only a certain number of plots. The interest lies in what the writer does with them.

I don't really have time to watch too much, but I like 'Family Guy' and 'Entourage.' I'm also obsessed with the YouTube series 'Balls of Steel.' It's hilarious.
