Great Regulars: [Jean M] Auel writes on a computer that has

a large monitor but does not have email or Web access. She starts about 11:30 p.m., after she watches the news with Ray and he goes to bed, and works for at least three or four hours, sometimes until the sun is up. She adjusts the blinds in her office to let in more or less light, and isn't worried about working alone in a huge condominium. When the night's work is done, she goes to bed and gets up around 2 p.m. to spend the afternoon and evening with her husband before starting to work again.

Writing is the hardest work Auel has ever done.

from Jeff Baker: The Oregonian: Where I write: Jean M. Auel works late in her Southwest Portland condo
