Forgery is a means to an end, and when done well, it’s inspiring. Look at Lee Israel. She got fed up with publishing and made a boatload of cash forging all the great authors. Oh sure, she got jammed up in prison, but eventually she told her story in a memoir, and her book became a movie starring Melissa Fucking McCarthy. Can You Ever Forgive Me? Well, yes, Ms. Israel. Yes, we can.
