Sabrina the Teenage Witch

• Stranger Things actor Millie Bobby Brown’s debut novel, Nineteen Steps, revolves loosely around true events.
• In 1943, the Bethnal Green tube disaster claimed the lives of 173 Londoners, due to faulty stairs in the station used as an air raid shelter.
• This tragedy, the UK’s largest loss of civilian life in the second world war, was one Brown’s own grandmother survived.
• Brown describes her novel as a “really special project” inspired by her family’s WWII history.

• A novel, on the other hand, implies a distinct relationship between author and text that a ghostwriter more clearly undermines.
• If Hemingway was right, and all it takes is to “sit at the typewriter and bleed”, we have good reason to worry about who gets the credit for bleeding a fictional story into being.

• Shortly afterwards, the book made headlines again when it came to light that a prolific children’s author had written it.
• But Sugg went on to publish several more novels, this time bearing the names of her co-authors on the covers.
• Critics say widespread ghostwriting in books for kids undermines quality and means there’s less money available to sign other authors.
