Words of Steel: Best-selling author starting blog


NEW YORK – After dozens of best sellers, novelist Danielle Steel still has words to spare: She's starting a blog.

"It's like a letter to a friend, and fun to be able share something and say, `Gee I did this,'" says Steel, 61, whose run of hits includes three this year alone: "Honor Thyself," "Rogue" and "A Good Woman."

In a recent telephone interview from her home in San Francisco, Steel said she expects to launch her blog, http://www.daniellesteel.net, on Thursday, to post entries once a week, or more often "if I get excited about something."
