Corbett S, Bishop D, Hogan E & Bell LM (2019) How to write a novel - four fiction writers on Danielle Steel's insane working day. The Conversation. 15.05.2019.

Abstract
First paragraph: She might be the world¡¯s most famous romance writer, nay the highest selling living author bar none, but there¡¯s little room for flowers and chocolates in Danielle Steel¡¯s writing regime. In a recent interview she laughed at the idea of young people insisting on a work-life balance, and has claimed she regularly writes for 20 to 22 hours a day, and sometimes 24. The result: 179 books in under 50 years, selling about 800m copies.

Keywords
