Multi Titles
On glancing through some of the best sellers lists on Amazon, I am amazed at how many titles an author can produce.
Some authors have long lists of books to their name, with covers and designs that all look very similar.
How doe they do it? Do they have teams of 'ghost writers' beavering away into the night to produce another batch of text and titles?
It kind of puts me off the author slightly when I see that so many books have been published in a relatively short period of time.
I HAVE read all the Dan Brown books, and having a gap of a few years between each title seems to be very reasonable.
Maybe I'm just jealous of the writers who can produce three or four books a year. I probably am, I'm a slow writer.

Total respect for you Mariam, and I hope i can produce as well as you have done.I starting something totally new; instead of biographical subjects, I am starting to write a fictional novel. The words are racing onto the pages as if the pen and keyboard have a life of their own.
Keep up the great work, it sounds like you really enjoy it.
My six books all have a different theme. (that's a no-no, books should lead into the next one) However, writing (IMHO) is to say something. At 94, I still have two books planned and they don't relate to any of my others. Hopefully someone will want to read them. "Stories About the Hotel Westward Ho" (History, Mystery and Love) is still having small sales but it takes a lot of promotion to get it out there to those who are interested.
Hope you continue writing about what you want to write! Cheers, Mariam Cheshire
