like a nice guy.

Indeed he is. Very soft spoken. Unassuming. Helpful to budding young writers
(like myself). It's great to hear him talk. He says as much or more about the
craft of writing than about how great his books are.

And he does have a researcher who does all of the legwork. He once told me
that he set all of the scenes for one of his Florida based books from reading
an issue of Town and Country. Can you imagine? Never know where you'll find
good material nowadays!
