Her Secret Shame

Hack tried to sue the makers of the smash hit musical “Mamma Mia” for plagiarizing this 1966 novella but the judge who heard the case said that the ABBA musical was “a delight for the eyes, ears and soul” whereas Hack’s work “made me want to get into a shower and never come out again.” He not only found against Hack but ordered him to pay all legal fees, which forced him into yet another bankruptcy.

The Three Rageaholics

When Hack described a frustrating situation he was caught in between two companies that were screwing him over and then throwing the blame on the other company to his friend Snow Mercy, she replied “You’re like the Three Stooges. You’re Larry.”

Hack was so traumatized at being likened to Larry Fine in that scenario that he wrote this book as therapy.
