I heard a rumor a while back that disturbed me. Someone told me that big authors like Nora Roberts don't have to write anymore. They simply come up with an outline for a story and someone else writes it.
I guess I don't believe that rumor. I can't think of anything worse than having someone else write my story idea. After writing hundreds of books I think I'd still feel the same way.
If it was true, why be a writer?
Writers that are disciplined and write two or three books a year, or more, have always impressed and inspired me.
So I don't believe it. These men and women are dedicated, disciplined, and have mastered their craft.
I actually posted this on the wrong blog, hopefully it will still be interesting to you all.

I found it very intersting - and I agree with you. It's one thing for 'celebrities' to have 'ghost' writers, I can't believe any serious writer would want someone else writing 'their' books, especially when they could do it so much bettr themslves!
