Oy..There ARE no words...

*shakes head*
The batshittery is SO big.. even Nora ROBERTS gets involved making funny/snarking comments. o_O

Long story short..
Woman claims a book "Of atlantis" is HEr baby that she's SLAVED over for TWO YEARS! She's OMG SPESHUL because she's a hadicapped storke survivor.

THEN mere WEEKS before her "book" is to be released by a vanity press...

IT WAS DISCOVERED IT WAS PLAGERISED!!

Lock, stock and beyond copyright.. as in only the odd word here and there was changed and the CHaracter's NAME changed. that's IT>>

THen its OMG its all teh GHOSTWRITER'S fault! 

And bonus the agent AND the writer write with the SAME style and misspellings!
THe Wreck STARTS here..
