My sister described to me an interview that she'd heard with
Donald Westlake a while back. Think it was on National Public
Radio, but she wasn't really specific. Anyhow, my sis said
that Westlake said that when he's writing a Stark novel he
more or less has to psych himself into a somewhat unfamilar
mind-set. Mentally, he more or less <becomes> Parker,
in some small way, anyway. Westlake opined as how his wife
had as little to do with him when he's writing a Stark book
as possible. Guess she finds the alteration, while temporary,
rather creepy.
