That is hilarious. Her excuse of not knowing she had to quote source materials is stupid, though - even the schlockiest (is that a word?) of romance writers should have at least a basic grasp of the legal aspects of copywrite issues, or should have been informed of them by whoever they have for editors and publishers.

And she could have gone so much further with the ferret info! Who wouldn't be aroused by the image of "making love like crazed weasels" (which is a quote from a Toronto cartoon series, I think), speaking of sources)?
