More on phony memoirs ...

... from Jessica Schneider (click on Part 2).

I think Jessica's onto something about the preference of "experience" over imagination.

    Great clip. Jess sounds like she writes (and, she's funny, too, in a subtly droll way). I think the point that stays with the listener is the notion of "branding" or "trufax" or the vocabulary of victimhood that pervades our cultureless utilitarianism, one which some of us do our damnedest to avoid in this, the twenty-worst century (that also "eats us up").

    I'll take what is substance and style over sensationalism for a grand, Alex.
