Can't say I'll be queuing up to read one of her books.
Hands up who thinks they will be ghost-written anyway?
I was watching an interview with Andy Murray about his book which was ghost written and he said 'I'm not clever enough to write a book' (which is daft - he is). Wish more Celebrities had that kind of attitude.
My suspicion is that this will put a squeeze on debut authors.
The Times is good as well; and so is HPRW!
