Personal Quote:
[when the 21st Dalziel and Pascoe novel was published in 2007, an interviewer asked him if this was his 48th published novel to date] That sounds very reasonable. I counted religiously till I got to 10, then in a more secular fashion till I got to 20, and after that I lost interest in keeping a tally. I mean, if 20 doesn't mean you're a real writer, then what number does?
