to get your book picked by Oprah?
I’m reading A Million Little Pieces by James Frey. It’s an awesome book. It’s really really good. The scandal is that he sold it as a memoir and it was in fact not based on his life.
Oprah picked it, making Frey (or at least his publisher) a lot of money. Then someone looked into the facts and discovered that the stuff in the book was not stuff that happened to James Frey.
I was all outraged at the time. But now i’m reading it…and it’s a great book.
Would i lie to get my book published and subsequently picked by Oprah?
HELL YEAH!
