It sounds like it is a database problems and not a session problem, have you optimised your database, or looked at it and be sure that the authors table is correct?

How do you transfer the session id? Do you use cookies, have cookies as optional or rely completely on GET variable?

And do you save the session id into database and check it from there?

Oh and your code would be helpful too. Just explain it or have it properly commented.
