Books that were fun to write and books that tried to kill me.

A lot of people ask me which of my books were the most fun to write.

Okay, three people have asked me that, but really, who's counting?Truth is, some books were as fun as rave parties to write. A few were complete pains in the ass and a couple I don't remember writing much at all.Figure that one out, Sigmund.It breaks down like this:* WORUMBO: A young reporter develops the ability to suck a single

Quotes by Mark Laflamme (?)

“Betty Dravis is a fantastic mix of Shirley Jackson, Edna Buchanan and Janis Joplin. Don't ask me how I came up with that unlikely comparison––I just feel it, and I haven't been drinking much tonight.”
