OMG I missed the wank! And the crazy! For hours! (Via cleolinda. Apparently the work in question is now gone like a gone thing that has George Lucas's lawyers after it.)

*scratches head*

well, from what i saw at f_w the idjit author's website is gone, and apparently she claimed the "book" was being withdrawn... but the amazon link still works just fine, and i was able to add the "book" [*massiveeyeroll*] to my cart.

i'm torn between serious wtf-age at how incredibly, unthinkably STUPID someone in the editing/publishing world can be (with a degree in journalism!!!!) and just sheer amusement at the OMGWTF of it all. :D

That journal thread is rather amusing. I had no interest in checking out the "book" itself, knowing that Lucasfilm's lawyers would be all over it like ugly on a very ugly thing. (I'm too tired to come up with an apt analogy there. :) ) And having read sufficiently bad Mary Sue fiction over the years (some of which has even been published professionally), the prospect of reading more didn't particularly appeal to me.

It's still on Amazon here http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1933456027/sr=8-1/qid=1145679100/ref=sr_1_1/102-9754833-2291366?%5Fencoding=UTF8

Skimming the pages available, it looks incredibly, obviously, bad.
