But you know what? Nobody buys books anyway. Nobody. If you have a friend who has written a book, ask how many copies it sold. The answer will probably be 12. Or none. That is unless you happen to be friendly with JK Rowling, Dan Brown or Jordan. Their books fly from the shelves like bottled water in a bird flu scare. Meanwhile, everything else in print is as popular as the Snowdon aviary.

Are you kidding me. Sounds like someone making excuses for their own lack of success.
