Quotes by Steven Womack  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I spread the photocopied articles in front of me and decided to start by cross-referencing the duplicates. Once I had the extra copies off to one side, I divided everything up by subject and put them in chronological order. I felt very organized and virtuous and even a bit obsessive-compulsive. Okay, I reasoned, you can’t force order on to your life but you can impose order on your stuff.”
Steven Womack, Music City Murders: Harry James Denton, #1-6

“You seem more alive. Just make sure you stay that way.” “Oh, don’t worry. I intend to. This is just a really interesting intellectual exercise.” “Hey, dumbass. You forget that somebody killed somebody over this intellectual exercise. Remember the old saying: It’s all fun and games until somebody loses an eye…” He tipped his beer bottle toward me. “Then it’s frickin’ hilarious.”
Steven Womack, Fade Up From Black: The Return of Harry James Denton

“How long have you two been married?” “Just over a year.” “You get along okay most of the time?” He shrugged. “Can get a little rocky,” he said. “Thank God for boxed wine and make-up sex.” I smiled. “If nothing else, I admire your honesty. Can’t say much for your judgment, but at least you seem to own it.”
Steven Womack, Fade Up From Black: The Return of Harry James Denton
