  1. After reading this book, I can only say my two pence:

    Fiction that is intentionally bad, written that way for the purposes of entertaining and amusing, and also educating, by pointing out some of the most common errors made by inexperienced writers.
    Fiction that is unintentionally bad; the author thinks it's good. Often those of us who know the difference between good and bad fic don't know whether to laugh or cry when we read this kind of story.
