Seriously! Here are two of my favorite quotes from the article:
Quote:

"Wyatt-Smith would prefer to distance her book from that of [Karrine] Steffans and [Carmen] Bryan, insisting that it’s not an exposé, because she disguises the identities of the bulk of her lovers. (Another key difference is that the Americans’ books were released by reputable publishing houses and consequently don’t suffer the errors in spelling, grammar and coherency that plague her self-published narrative)."

Toronto-born of Italian and Jamaican parentage, Wyatt-Smith reveals a hard knocks start that found her on her own at 13 and sucked into a fast lifestyle for survival. She said she supports herself now with “odd jobs here and there, hosting,” but is taking a writing course in hope of reinventing herself as an author and journalist. She also fancies herself a motivational speaker with a story she believes is tailor-made for Oprah Winfrey, Tyra Banks and her holy grail — Dr. Phil, despite Internet naysayers who brand her a gold-digger.

I'll give her credit that anyone can become a motivational speaker if they are honest and real with their story that can motivate others. If she experienced incest, sexual abuse, and relationship abuse, she could very well speak on a variety of topics. However, I'm just not cool with her using her marriage to Mos Def as a her springboard to her motivational speaking career.
But self-publishing the book with a 7th Grade education? Iono....
