In the movie William [Forrester] only wrote and published one novel. Through out the entire movie he talked about losing family to death. At one point in the movie William Forrester said "why do some of us live and some of us die". I believe he wrote the first novel before the death of his family. After losing his family, he went into a depression and this caused him to quit writing novels to be published. He locked himself in his apartment to hopefully stop the process of anything bad happening to him or maybe he was punishing himself for being the only one alive; but I think the death of his family made him go into hiding and he just quit caring about his writing. This is why I think William Forrester did not write anymore novels till the end.
