Copyright infringement ain't so bright either...

This is old news if you follow publishing, but it's still an amusing read.

Some dunder-head self published a Twilight fan-fic. (And argued about it being illegal!) Some interesting threads and wank from the idiot herself:

Rather than give up entirely, the hot mess of a 'book' is available to suffer through here:

I was shocked when this first appeared, and appalled that it's available anywhere outside of a fan fic forum (excuse the unintentional alliteration).

Whatever one may feel about Mrs. Meyer's prose, there is absolutely no recourse for this reprehensible behavior. (Plus, this book makes Twilight read like Shakespeare in comparison.)
