“I begin to figure out the main characters as the plot is taking shape, but the plot is what I develop first. The setting generally is where I’m living at the time of the writing, so most of my books are set in New York, but some of the earlier ones are in Philly,” the author says.

Mark Conard is the co-editor of The Simpsons and Philosophy, and Woody Allen and Philosophy; and is the editor of The Philosophy of Film Noir, The Philosophy of Neo-Noir, The Philosophy of Martin Scorsese, The Philosophy of The Coen Brothers, and The Philosophy of Spike Lee (all published by The University Press of Kentucky).
