Oh, O_i, Og_s.

Remember that pair of jerks who tried to get fandom to play survey games with them so they could write their book about sex? (Many links to Surveyfail here)It's about to come out, so I wandered over to Amazon and found myself gagging over such gems of inaccuracy in the description as:

Women enjoy writing and sharing erotic stories with other women. The fastest growing genre of erotic stories for women are stories about two heterosexual men having sex.


They're described as Two maverick neuroscientists.

I guess if 'maverick' means deceitful, ethically corrupt, and clueless, that's about right.

I won't link to it but it's called a "A Billion Wicked Thoughts" now.

Yeah, that's not judgmental at ALL.

I think you should link to it and encourage people to comment bomb them.

Well, it's easy enough to search Amazon with the title but I guess until it comes out in a few weeks it'll be pretty quiet in the reviews from readers.

The advance raves on there are making my lip curl.

You've missed the best part, because I've heard they've now disabled user-added tags on Amazon for that book...fandom et al discovered the thing a while back and the added tags were on the lines of survey!fail, bad science, my cat does better reserach etc etc :)

They're all still there, though, or they were yesterday. Just click on the tags link and it takes you to them. Heh. They're funny.
