32. Very! A friend of mine actually did it and got published by Ballantine!

His novel came out a little over ten years ago. It was called "The Truth Machine," and
it speculated about what would happen to the world if someone invented a foolproof lie
detector. Warner Brothers bought the film rights (haven't yet made the film), and he got
interviewed on Oprah. Even so, he kept his (admittedly rather successful) day job, and is
still doing that rather than writing more novels.
