It's Very Different To Have This Kid

As For Music, My Tastes Are Eclectic. Elvis Costello Is My All-time Favorite. I Listen To A Lot Of Jazz, Primarily The Great Female Vocalists, And I Am Very Fond Of The Late Cabaret Singer Nancy Lamott.

I Think Baltimore Suffers From Nostalgia And It Keeps Us From Being Honest In Talking About What Really Happened Here. A Place Doesn't Have To Be Perfect To Be Beloved, And I Love This City And I Love It Better For Seeing Its Flaws.

Whatever You Want, At Any Moment, Someone Else Is Getting It. Whatever You Have, Someone Else Is Longing For.

The Competition For The Future Of Crime Fiction Is Fierce, As It Should Be, But Don't Take Your Eyes Off Craig Mcdonald. He's Wily, Talented And-rarest Of The Rare-a True Original. He Writes Melancholy Poetry That Actually Has Melancholy Poets Wandering Around, But Don't Turn Your Backs On Them, Either. I Am Always Eager To See What He's Going To Do Next.

It's Very Different To Have This Kid That I'm Truly Responsible For.
