So - the author is local... and a brother of parents that our kids went to school with. Kids went to a CatLick school... and anyone that's ever been around CatLick schools knows about the all important "auction"... The author had donated a "your name mentioned in my next book" for the "silent auction". Being good Catlick parents -- Gwen maxes the bid and wins the item. MONTHS later he calls to discuss the book - and to ask if it's okay to use her as a main character and to use her FULL name... Being an officer of a public company - her name is already easily Googled etc - so she says "sure... what the heck".
The book sucks according to her.
She has done a book club for about 20+ years -- several "girls" -- and they've all stuck with it all this time - in fact, she's there tonight! But none of them knew about the book -- so it was her turn to recommend their next read - and shows up with books for all of them but never mentions the inclusion... HA! Got lots of milage out of that I can tell ya!
