The super hero outfit is a nice touch, though.

Maybe we’re giving him too much attention though. After all, isn’t he just your average, run-of the-mill domestically violent, cocaine purchasing, 911 phone center abusing, trespassing, super-hero caped crusading, disbarred, delusional, tax protesting, anti-government, felonious ex-con tax cheats?

In today's publishing environment, that kind of timing is not an issue. IMHO the real problem (the one that confounds not only the publisher but the subjects of the alleged book) is the whole topic is an aircraft that left the airport without filing a flight plan.

How does one write about a flight that is still in the air?

My plane landed when the Browns were arrested.

I originally used the series of criminal trials ending with Schulz as my landing, but the Brown situation was just too juicy to pass up, so I've have to completely rewrite the book. When you spend three hundred pages predicting a violent event, you can't just ignore the event when it happens.
Demo.

For all the crap we give you about your alleged book, you know we'll be the first in line to buy the book. And I'm serious about a signed copy. : )

It is interesting to note the indefinite tense in this post of "I've have to completely rewrite the book." which is entirely indiscernible as to the intended tense of that phrase. Whether it means I have had to with past tense meaning or I will have to with future tense meaning is a mystery.

Some might claim that it was merely a typographical error in the post; but we can be no more sure of the intended meaning of that phrase than we can of the release date for the alleged book.
