Jonathan Kellerman quotes
" Each novel is harder than its predecessor because I must work harder at not repeating myself. However, I enjoy the challenge. This is the greatest job in the world. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" I don't practice, but I am still officially in paediatrics. I keep in touch with journals, and I have a very good data bank of medical information and there is a key thing for a writer knowing where to go. I know where to go to get the information that I need. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" I've written fifteen novels, and of those, thirteen had been Delaware books. By some coincidence, I've done non-Delaware books every ten years or so. Billy Straight was last year. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" It didn't feel difficult at the time because I was so charged up about both books. Afterward, however, I was pretty tired. In a good way, like after a great workout. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" No Hanukkah stories in the pipeline. I think Adam Sandler covered that pretty comprehensively. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" That has to remain the principal reason for doing it, doesn't it? I know it's possible to write for money, and many very good writers have done so. But for me, it has to remain the principal thing that I actually want to do the writing. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" That's what's so great about my job. I get paid to do what got me in trouble in grade school space out and play with my imaginary friends. In terms of Isaac, when the time's right. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" The characters emerge from my rather twisted mind. That's another enjoyable part of the job making stuff up. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" The key to this collaboration - which we undertook after much deliberation - was to stretch creatively. New characters, new locales, new form (the novella). "

Jonathan Kellerman
" The story sprang from my rather warped imagination, not from a real-world case. I can never answer the question of jump-starting in a simple manner because my novels tend not to be high-concept, summable in one sentence. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" These people are real to me, and situations keep coming up where their emergence feels natural. It's like meeting old friends. I hope readers feel the same way. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" Time spent researching varies from book to book. Some novels require months, even years of research, others very little. I try to do most of my research before I begin but inevitably questions emerge during the writing. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" We tend to read each other's books in sizeable chunks as they are written. I don't know that you could say we are ruthless with each other - in fact, I suppose we are very kind. There are ways to make suggestions which are not destructive. "

Jonathan Kellerman
" Without sounding pompous, I really do feel that I have a set of standards that I must adhere to, even leaving aside considerations of what the readers expect. "
