It's damn work. Hard work. You need to work like a musician or a dancer in order to become a writer, says the popular English fiction writer Jeffrey Archer.

In Hyderabad as part of the five-city tour in India to promote his latest novel Mightier than the Sword , Jeffrey Archer said the Indian women are the most ambitious lot and the next generation belonged to them.

Interacting with the students of Indian School of Business, he said the Clifton Chronicles series won't end with the latest book.

Originally planned to be a five-book series, the series will have two more parts.

The 75-year -old novelist said the things wouldn't always move as your plan.

He related his daily routine, how he schedules his writing work. "I am not a writer. I am a story teller,'' he said.
