Simultaneously entertained and appalled

solarbird pointed me to this link over on nihilistic_kid's journal--a gag eBay auction for someone selling their manuscript for $150,000.

At least, I HOPE it's a gag. ;) I wonder if this is some editing intern somewhere who has decided to vent some frustration after reading one too many really badly written query letters! What makes this particularly priceless is the repetition of how "English teachers" told the writer this and that, and oh yes, the offer to give bidders his address so they can "come over" and read the manuscript before purchase.
