    Solution

    The original sentence is in the passive voice ("was written by...").

    To convert it to active voice, identify the doer (subject) тАФ the famous author тАФ and the object тАФ the novel.

    The correct structure in active voice is:

    Subject (The famous author) + verb (wrote) + object (the novel)

    So, the correct sentence is: "The famous author wrote the novel in just three months."
