Don't you just hate it when you start a great (if maudlin and badly punctuated) fanfic novel and halfway through one of the characters changes identities and becomes a pulp fiction writer and then the next twenty pages are an "excerpt" of this character's detective novel? Yeah, I hate that.

Hee. Have you finished it yet? Perhaps she wraps it all up in the end? *hope springs eternal in the fannish breast*

I'm still reading it.

There is no shame in it. ;) We've all (of us in fandom) been there.

And is it wrong of me that what bothers me the most is not that this story has suddenly jumped the rails and become absurd, but that the author has completely gotten everything about book publishing wrong?

Considering what you do, no. :P
