"I apologise to anyone who bought my on-sale ebook of Baby, I'm Yours and read on page 293: 'He stiffened for a moment but then she felt his muscles loosen as he shitted on the ground'," says Andersen. "Shifted - he SHIFTED! I just cringe when I think of the readers who have read this..."

I love that they printed and distributed the leaflet without realising...
