- The workday begins at 5:30 for Ann M. Martin, and from then
- on she writes like the wind. The jump-start is the only way
- Martin, 34, has been able to produce 43 best sellers in four
- years. Her Baby-Sitters Club series, about a group of girls
- with a bustling child-care business, has 35 million copies in
- print so far and brings the quiet-spoken Manhattan author about
- 12,000 fan letters a year. "It's not great literature," says
- Martin, who was still baby-sitting when she was a student at
- Smith College, "but it's turned quite a few kids from
- nonreaders into readers." Welcome to the club.
