This little book is being offered free because it shows how, with a little bit of luck, a writer can become very, very rich.It's also being offered free because it shows how, with a little bit of poor research, a writer can suffer all sorts of very, very expensive bad things.Call it a cautionary tale that's fun to read.Martin Harrison wrote a book. It wasn't very good, but it got published. Somebody read it, somebody in the film industry, and he decided to make a movie based on the book. The sale of the film rights made Martin a rich man.His money got him a nice house, exotic cars and a young, blond wife.Somebody saw the movie and didn't like it.He didn't like it because Martin hadn't done his research properly and that failure led to a court action for libel and all sorts of other seriously bad things.If you're a writer you really should read this (it's free, so why not?) so you don't make the same mistakes that poor old Martin Harrison made.
