Later it was found out that it was "embellished" (=a pack of lies), which lead Oprah to feel a bit duped, so she called him on the show and slaughtered him. The man is obviously demented and caused his own ruin...but hopefully his lies did make him enough money because something tells me he's not a good enough writer to let his work (as fiction) stand on its own (certainly not good enough to sell in the millions).
