Ruth Rendell still killing at age 75

I just read a rather interesting feature on Mystery Writer Ruth Rendell. She says she began her literary careerwith some "very bad" unpublished novels. Then, "for fun," she wrote amystery centered on Detective Chief Inspector Reg Wexford, a liberal,literary small-town detective. From there, she never looked back. She has been in the business over 40 years. I love her work, but I think it's time she retired, and let some new blood in the limelight.
