We’re taking on the topic of the Rumor that Wouldn’t Die, also known as “Nora Roberts Must Have Ghost Writers.”
Here’s what we have to say about that:
For more context, here is the link to the original post by Nora Roberts that we reference in this episode:

Look, everyone: If you write like it’s a full-time job like Nora does, it is entirely possible to write four books (or more) per year. AJ and Jen have both participated in “National Novel Writing Month,” and completed a 50,000 “novel” in one month. If we can write 50,000 in a month while still working at our full-time jobs, Nora can write twice or three times that in a month for her full-time job. (And do it 10 times better, probably).
We read a review of “Shadows in Death” that came out after we did our “We Review the Reviews – Shadows in Death Edition” episode. It’s a really obnoxious review that is pretty typical of what obnoxious assholes say when they accuse Nora of having ghostwriters.
Also, we just want Nora to know:
If you haven’t picked up on it by now, let us be clear: We are all HUGE fans.
There will always be an open invitation for Nora (or Nora’s publicist Laura) to be a guest on this show, and we would be honored should that ever happen. Honestly, we’re good people and really fun. Just ask Susan Ericksen.
