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>>
