(Except over at What Casey Means to Say which is quite clever and generally bang-on)
It seems Casey Serin was interviewed again by the Sac Bee.
The article says:
Due out this fall is "The Foreclosure Code," a self-published book that tells
how the 24-year-old racked up $2 million in debt last year after acquiring eight
homes in a space of seven months - just as the real estate market was turning
south.
I thought it was due out in July? Is July fall in Australia?
Casey says (in the article, via email):
I want to show people what to do and more importantly what NOT to do
O RLY? How about starting up icanhasforcloshurz?
I call bullshit. You want to try to make money off what you've already put up for free on the web. Which in turn begs the question, why would anyone pay to read your story? In that case, you should take the blog down.
Oh wait. You can't. Or won't.
The article says:
He says his book will have some similarities to author Dan Brown's best-seller,
"The Da Vinci Code," including a look-alike cover
Oh this should be good! Seriously! Can you imagine how he's going to combine Templar Mysticism with his story?
Either that, or he just can't come up with an original idea. Neither can his publisher.
Oh WAIT. They're one and the same. The article says:
Due out this fall is "The Foreclosure Code," a self-published book
I have a self-published book too. Its called a thesis, and I assure you, it has far more substance than anything Casey Serin will ever write.
Bullshit again on selling the blog. You won't because you like the attention. And if your "publisher" wouldn't let you take it down, why would he let you sell it?
If Casey won't or can't shut down his blog, and can't sell it, then I call bullshit on the book too.
