Oh I love this.
I could just listen to Nora Roberts talking all day. I wasn’t so interested in Eloisa James, but only because I don’t read her. I have to say though, it was interesting to see her hubby.

Aw, Nora gave some Whedon love. That just gives me warm fuzzies. 🙂

I love that she’s a Buffy and Spike fan, it makes her seem so real.

I don’t think Nora Roberts is real. I think she is a cyborg. All her claims to be “human” are a front. No human could possible write as many books as she and be consistently good. It’s unnatural. She’s an alien from WriterPlanet. Or something like that.

I thought exactly the same thing Jane, I’ve always wondered how she managed to write so many books in such a short space of time.

Oh thanks for posting that. I’m not a NR fan, but I do adore Eloisa James.

Lo and behold, I became anonymous sometime during the last 8 hours. That first comment was mine, by the way. It wasn’t anonymous the last time I was here. *Twilight Zone music*

Cyborg, no, but . . .
I evolved.
There are many copies.
And we have a plan.

Kat, you became anonymous cuz I finally changed to Beta Blogger. It’s a pain in the arse already.
Nora, what I don’t get is how come some authors take over 18 months to write one book *cough*LisaValdez*cough*, yet you can shoot three out in three months. That takes some beating missus.

Wish the videos were captioned as I have no idea what they are saying. Instead, I tried to read the spines on Eloisa’s bookcase. Can’t figure out what books she’s reading. Did anyone think she looks a bit like Catherine of CSI? Don’t read her, either, personally bec not really into historicals.

That’s why they pay me the big bucks.
Seriously, I can’t do the three books in three months pub very often. I can’t write three books in three months–no, not even me–so it messes with my writing schedule for awhile. And they have to wait a year instead of six months to start publishing the next trilogy after the triple bang.

Aha, a weakness. “Even I can’t write three books in three months”
But really, we don’t believe you. This effort at appearing normal and human is not working.
You Noras probably churn out a book a day. And we will continue to disbelieve you unless you text us on our smartphones with a dirty picture of all the Noras doing something lascivious. Because only then will we believe that you are human. That’s what all the normal people do, you know.

We do not know how to text. It is not in our programming. It is beyond our capabilities.
And it kind of scares us.
