How would your soul feel if someone passes such a statement about you after your death ?

Never actually read any of his material, always seemed like airport pageturners to me, but he was obviously very active as a screenwriter through the 60's and 70's. I had crushes on Barbara Eden and Stefanie Powers as a kid - both solid TV shows, though they were pretty intensely formulaic. Saw a couple of his 80's miniseries too, they were OK. For some reason I used to always mix him up with Harold Robbins.

Had a long and successful career though. RIP.

Perhaps because both were garanteed to give you some smut in their books ?
TBF, I agree with you - airport page turners is what they were: Harold Robbins was a similar author though his stories tended to be less formulatic and far heavier on the smut.

RIP SS.
