Ballsy?
FAKE was reviewed in last week's issue of PLAY, a weekly entertainment newspaper in Philadelphia. The critic called called the book a "true-crime page-turner" and described it as "irresistable and cautionary."
The review also characterizes me as "ballsy." I believe this is the only time a critic has used this adjective to describe my behavior. "Reckless" or "moronic" might have been more accurate, but I'm not going to complain.

i read yr book over the past two days and i really enjoyed it. it's a great story and a few times i laughed out loud. i'd agree with ballsy but the greed of the buyers certainly played into it. i went back through some art pages on ebay and you're right, if it says "signed/dated" i look at the piece. i also don't believe a lot of stuff i see but i don't buy "art" trying to make a profit. i mostly buy bootleg cd's so i know what i'm getting...good luck etc.
I read an article about the fake picture you sold on ebay. I guess it's pretty cool that you're going into the mainstream with this topic. Just to tell people how it was, that feeling doing this. I really want to read your book but I'm german and don't know where to get it. Will there be an translation? Or where can I find the english instance?
"Fake: Making money by being a heartless jerk." And you're still doing it, too. With this dumb book.
I was fooling museum curators & experts when you were sucking on your mama's nipple. Your book is not a movie. Its an entertaining conversation at best. Your not any kind of forger, and you have no idea what its like to truly fool the real art world. I thank you for your honesty, but your not in the same league with true master forgers. Ones who don't get caught, and would never write a book about it. Lets put it this way -Art I have owned hangs in almost every major Contemporary & Modern Museum in this country and many overseas. I have had 7 world experts authenticate pieces from my PERSONAL collection. If I wrote a book, they would be knocking my door down to make it into a movie.
Your a full pledged rookie.
Well, anyway good luck in your new honest angle. I know however that once larceny in your heart, it stays. Your not fooling anyone.
the email to get in contact with you is no good
I haven't seen the book yet, but it piques my interest nevertheless. Might grab one copy soon.
i've read your book and i really amazed how you turn into a programmer during the desperation.
if you dont mind me asking, did you learn to program in school, or is it really out of the desperation?

The high dose treatment is only considered as last resort because it would lead to adverse side effects.
