Title: Bad Writing Sells
Product review: This was the worst-written book I have ever read. Run-on sentences, an apparent phobia of commas,a decision by a neophite published writer to not use quotation marks, apprently meaningless random capitalization. And people buy this buy the millions? I am reminded also of the terrible writing style of "Bringing Out the Dead", by Joe Connelly, and of course the legendary "The DaVinci Code." Does anybody edit this stuff? Does anybody at the publisher talk to these "writers" and explain the basics? Or do the publishers just make a decision that if it looks like it's going to sell, anything goes, they'll publish anything to make a buck. The story of this book's bestseller status is a sad commentary on the state of publishers and so-called writers in America today.Also, anyone who has actually been through rehab and done the program can see the whole thing is made up. What a farce.
