Mark B:
"I think you are referrring to how he, as Richard Stark,
decided in the morning to work on a Parker book as opposed to
working on a Grofield one."
You're probably right. It would certainly make more sense
that way.
I pulled out my copy of Murder Ink to see if the quote was in
that book. It wasn't, but the round robin interview with 4 of
Westlake's alter-egos is interesting and amusing, ending with
Stark robbing the others at gunpoint.
There's a lot of interesting stuff in the book, including an
article by Robert B Parker, "Marxism and the Mystery," and a
guide (not by Parker),
"How to Tell Spade from Marlowe from Archer."
