The 'LAUREN BROOKE' Team includes Linda Chapman, Gill Harvey (these 2 only did Heartland, not Chestnut Hill) Catherine Hapka, Elisabeth Faith http://www.janebadgerbooks.co.uk/modern/chestnuthill.htmlThey are the ghost writers that work together to write the books.
That's why there are so many mistakes. For example Sundance's coat colour, Ben's surname and Caleb's surname (Smith or Meadows?). xxx |

Lauren Brooke is a publisher’s construct. The books are actually written by a team of three authors: Linda Chapman, Gill Harvey and Elisabeth Faith.
Another authour joins then for CH.

So basically, none of us will ever meet Lauren Brooke, or spend 5 mins with her or whatever.

Yeah, but that's been known for a while. It's really common with childrens long running series for them to be written by a team of ghost writers, and them just make up a name to go on the covers. Like the Animal Ark books, in the US I believe they're 'written' by a guy called Ben...someone. In the UK, the author is Lucy Daniels. But the content of the books is the same. Why they have different names on them, I don't know, but they do. Just the way it is.

Yes, we found that out a while ago, didn't we? And some of the people involved in these books are involved in Animal Ark by 'Lucy Daniels'.
I think it's good.

Okay, I knew there were ghost writers but this is the part that confuses me... Does she exist and came up with the idea, or did they all work together and just make up that name? lol

Well, if you read the interview on that was done for the TV show, it says LB comes up with the ideas and others write them, but honestly, I think that's really unlikely. I think it's just a name they came up with, and the team of writers probably just came up with the interview answers too.

lol, probably. I kind of hope thats the case, that she isnt real, cuz then i could still like... i dont know the word. But even though a lot of people do it, i just think i have a lot more respect for an author that does more than just come up with the ideas.
