Well, the stupiest thing of all is the fact that SM studied English on University. So I guess she must have had biology classes; which means she probably knows herselfs that she's dead wrong about her theory.

And it hurts to see that authors who pay no attention in doing investigations to the subjects they are writing about and still get famous.

I mean; I was writing a fanfiction about Sweeney Todd and I even looked up (googling) where a freaking bottle of ink could stand in a carage in the 19th century! I however did not found it. But I did the same with Hyde Park in London. I looked everything up. I read that there were deers in this park in 19th century. I looked up a map of it. I looked up a map of Cambridge and it's information. Got irritated because I couldn't always find the things I wanted to know in order to get my story accurate. I really value the accurateness of a story!

And about sketching a picture of the first person of the book. That's why I always use traits of myself. I use the things I know in order to keep this person believable.
