<<Just thought of another one, Sam Holt, about TV
detective Sam Holt as
an amateur sleuth.>>
I bet not even Westlake himself remembers how many pen names
he's
used...By the way, at the beginning of his career he caught
the tail end
of the pulps. I've seen a few stories reprinted from that
era, and he
collected the Levine stories in one delightful volume.
What's
interesting is that he was as fine a writer in his extreme
youth as he
is now. Amazing.
If you read enough Westlake, you get the complete course on
how to write
anything.
