The Accidental Author - "Shades of Gray"

 

She didn't write "Fifty Shades of Grey."

The author of a book called "Shades of Gray" says her work is being confused with that of a chart-topping erotic fiction writer.

Susanne Jacoby Hale, an author based in Florida, says she has received emails, Facebook messages and phone calls from people thinking she wrote "Fifty Shades of Grey." "Fifty Shades of Grey," by British author E L James, has sold millions of copies and become a sensation among women drawn to the unbelieveable romance between a college student and a weathly businessman.

Do Ms. Hale a favor and order her book here.

Donald and Peta Stand Third on DWTS

This season of "Dancing With the Stars" is coming down to the wire.

To use a football analogy, it's the two-minute warning.

On Monday’s semifinal, Green Bay Packer Donald Driver was close to perfect.  He and partner Peta Murgatroyd are in third place with a 57 out of 60 heading into tonight’s elimination, which will narrow the field to the final three for next week’s finale.

I think he stands an excellent chance of making it to the finals.

The standings after Monday’s two rounds of competition: Maria Menounos, 59; William Levy, 58; Driver, 57; and Katherine Jenkins, 56.

Jenkins, and her partner Mark Ballas look to be the odd couple out right now.  Whoever makes it through, will make up a great final trio.
