Editor's Disclaimer

To be very honest — nobody actually said this. AI wrote it in the style of the archive to keep this page from feeling empty while we chase down real quotes. Enjoy the fiction responsibly.

“To be perfectly honest, I've reviewed hundreds of manuscripts, and the ones that sell best are rarely the ones that deserve to. There's a formula, and literary merit is maybe 15% of it. The rest is timing, trends, and whether the author photographs well.”
