From the Associated Press:
Brand name novelist Danielle Steel has reached agreement with New Line Home Entertainment for film rights to at least 30 of her books…
I’ve never read any Danielle Steel myself*, so maybe this is a little unfair, but if you’ve read one or her books, haven’t you pretty much read them all? Isn’t this a little like selling the same thing, thirty times over?

* I was actually a little surprised to discover that Danielle Steel isn’t a pen name: she was born Danielle Fernande Schuelein-Steel.
