Cassie Edwards - from the "Laugh Out Loud" file

From my Laugh Out Loud File:

Cassie Edwards, a popular romance novelist who has written over 100 novels, is accused of plagiarism. In her defense of the charge she said she did not know she was supposed to credit her sources. "When you write historical romances you're not asked to do that." She said.
Reported in The New York Times by Felicia R. Lee, January 16, 2008.

Ha ha ha ha.

According to her website a lot of Edwards' books are about romance between white women and Native American Indian Men. Some sample titles: Savage Intrigue, Savage Quest, Savage Skies, Savage Glory, Savage Darkness, Savage Lies, Savage Heart, Savage Flames...I'm unable to continue. I have to go throw up.
