Probably about nine. The writers of the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke (who is also said to have written Acts) and John (who is also said to have written three letters and Revelation). 13 letters are ascribed to Paul, two to Peter, one each to James and Jude, and one anonymous.

All of these are conjectural.

General belief today regarding who wrote the Gospels?

Little is known about the authors of the New Testament gospels, but it is widely accepted among theologians and scholars that the authors were not Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. The authors were not eyewitnesses to the events they described, nor were they acquaintances of eyewitnesses, writing many decades after the time of Christ. It appears that each author was writing for a separate community, where only that gospel was in use. Some scholars, but not necessarily a majority, believe that John's Gospel was written within a Gnostic Christian community, and that it was subsequently amended to make it more acceptable to what had by then become mainstream Christianity.
