Writing a full-length novel is a labor of love. Most authors who manage to put together a best-selling book often have mixed emotions about their work, but they often come around in support of their book in order to promote it.However, other times when writers churn out a book, they may actually loathe the work and its content. The disliked book sometimes becomes a best seller, and then the author is saddled with talking about a work they never really enjoyed themselves. So if you have writer’s block, or cannot see the value of a writing project you are working on, remember, you are not in bad company.
The following authors went on public record disowning their work.
1. Anthony Burgess – A Clockwork Orange
2. Ian Fleming – The Spy Who Loved Me

4. Stephen King – Rage
5. A.A. Milne – Winnie the Pooh
6. Alan Moore – V For Vendetta
