Frankly, I can't tell whether this is a publicity stunt or not, but I find it interesting that an author with an unknown novel nobody can seem to find a copy of would pay lawyers to go after a bestselling novelist.

You can find the story here on January Magazine.

Rich, successful people are always a target for the unbalanced and those seeking to grab a bit for themselves.

Yes, I think Rowling has had more than one challenge.

I'll be surprised if this amounts to much.
