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.
