DON'T BE SUCKED IN!!! I have received several emails from people chastising me for being a part of this and trust me...I AM NOT A PART OF THIS!
I'm hoping this blog post will come up on google when people research this BEFORE they send money.

It is...

WOW!!!!! Congrats Pat!! You're buying.
LOL!!
People actually think you're involved in this??
I bet you had no idea when you titled the book how it would attract con artists! :)
(Oh - I applied for an MFA program this summer and did my entrance thesis on the point of view in Lottery. I got in. So thanks! )
