Did you know?!Facts and trivia about High Noon (2009)

Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.

  • In 1997, the bestselling romance writer Janet Dailey admitted to repeatedly plagiarizing Nora Roberts's work after a reader noticed matching passages in Roberts's Sweet Revenge and Dailey's Notorious and posted them online; Roberts sued, calling the plagiarism "mind-boggling".
  • Nora Roberts began writing during a blizzard in February 1979, with three feet of snow, a dwindling supply of chocolate and no morning kindergarten for her two sons; she quickly produced six manuscripts for Harlequin, all of which were repeatedly rejected.
  • Roberts was the first inductee into the Romance Writers of America's Hall of Fame, and the group's Lifetime Achievement Award, which she won in 1997, was renamed the RWA Nora Roberts Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008.
  • In 2007 Lifetime Television made TV movies from four Nora Roberts novels, Angels Fall with Heather Locklear, Montana Sky with Ashley Williams, Blue Smoke with Alicia Witt and Carolina Moon with Claire Forlani, the first time the channel had adapted multiple works by one author.
  • Roberts and her second husband, Bruce Wilder, owned the historic Boone Hotel in Boonsboro; a fire destroyed it in February 2008, and it reopened in 2009 as the Inn BoonsBoro, its suites named for literary romantic couples with happy endings.
  • As of January 2009, 400 million copies of Nora Roberts's books were in print, including 12 million sold in 2005 alone.
