His editor - I don't remember his name - finally persuaded John D. to do a series. John D. was strongly against it, but finally gave in. The editor - whose name I just now can't remember - had the idea of some common feature for all the books, and it ended up in colours - 'do you have a better idea?' I guess he said, and John D. did not.
