Yeah, we are curious share more and why you choosed dead writers?

For example why you didn't choose somebody else like Peter Straub or Lee Child or Dean Koontz!?

Well, I didn't deliberately set out to choose dead writers. I just chose the two writers who I think had the most influence on me and my development as a storyteller. I like a lot of authors, Child and Koontz among them, but they don't inspire my writing the same way that Leonard has. And Mark Twain? He's a timeless icon - my idol.

You have Interesting perspective!
