[quote name="Patrick Nice"]I was taking the ferry one day when I say a young woman with a scar on her forehead. I thought to myself, "I bet she'd like to be raped by pirates." I immediately started work on my <i>Raped by Pirates</i> series of novels, which was picked up by Mary Kay Publishing. The first installment sold 400,000 copies through direct sales. Which was nice. <i>Patrick's latest work, Oh No! More Rapes by Pirates, is available now through your local Mary Kay representative.</i>[/quote]
