i learned recently, i think it was sherlock holmes? I'm not a literary scholar dont quote me, was literally just a book about how mormons suck and are bad and stinky. But actually it's a novel now.

I wouldn't be surprised to learn if that kind of thing happened more often than we thought about.

He ended up having to scrap his last book (currently being rewritten) because the way he was going to wrap up the series was going to be a worldwide plague that made people stupider.

should've published it anyway, i think that would've been funny.
