...writing the 100-plus light entertainments that appear each month? "It's not Joyce Carol Gates under a pseudonym," says Gallon's Sullivan. Given the turgid prose style, that much, at least, is certain. Novice authors, in fact, tend to be housewives supplementing the family income, like Parris Afton Bonds of Lewisville, Texas. Bonds spends her day with five sons, ages one to 13, and plots her amours "after the diapers are rinsed...
When the Romance Writers of America convene in Houston this summer, those workers will also include Christina Savage and Shana Carol a.k.a. Kerry Newcomb and Frank Schaefer, two male ex actors who have gleaned atmosphere from old John Wayne movies. Although these romanticists represent the new Grub Street, the income of some superstars is more suitable for Rodeo Drive. The authors' earnings from a single volume can reach $30,000, and novelists like Janet Dailey (80 million copies of 57 novels in print) produce eight books a year for a six-figure income. Experience is not necessary. Bestselling Writers...

Besides Sterkel and Linehan, Longhorn Coach Paul Bergen expects top performances from distance freestyler Linda Irish, butterflyer Carol Borgmann (who finished second behind Sterkel in both the 50- and 100-yd. butterfly at last month's AIAW championships), and IMer Karen Werth. Werth has never been to Nationals before but already has the third fastest 200-IM in the country this year to her credit...
Flashbulbs popped and reporters shouted questions when a jubilant Carol Burnett emerged from Los Angeles county superior court last week, hugging fans and signing autographs for jurors. After eight days of testimony and three of deliberation, the jurors had provided a classic Tinseltown ending to a televised trial that was followed as avidly as a soap opera. They awarded Burnett a whopping $1.6 million in damages in her libel suit against the sensation-seeking National Enquirer (circ. 5,100,000). Said the relieved star: "There...
