Is there going to be a NaNoWriMo event in July? Then I'll check the site... I've still got some idea's bouncing in my head, and half a plot and other stuff, but I'm... uh... too lazy to actually write it down because there's always something else I must or want to do :X
Maybe if I have some motivation to actually write the story instead of just thinking about it, I could even get it done, sometime. |

The books "churned out" in quantity seem to be short erotica serials, not full-length novels or novellas. I've purchased the full-length novel _Falling into You--it's only 99 cents and my romance-reading pals seem to like it--and will be making my own evaluation as to the quality. Honestly, as someone who writes short things I'm always inspired by someone selling them successfully. Although I am not sure I have the right sense of humor for erotica.

P.S. I think that outstanding books are usually written in hopes of getting money, but not only for that. Last edited by SteveEisenberg; 06-25-2013 at 10:39 PM. |

We now live in a time in which publishing is so inexpensive that no one needs to be humble. For most of us, the only remaining rejection letter is public indifference. Last edited by Prestidigitweeze; 07-02-2013 at 10:32 AM. |

You are enjoying your books and the Wilders are able to continue paying their mortgage due to you and others buying their books.
That's a win for everyone! Happy reading folks! |

You know who was really prolific? Eleanor Hibbert (you may know her better as Victoria Holt or Jean Plaidy or several other pen names). And she wrote some very entertaining and educational books! By the way, the Jasinda Wilder book I read was very good. I shall be getting the, hm, "parallel companion" book (seems to be Becca's story). |
