Mr Fifty Shades

Splendid piece in The Guardian by the husband of the author of that novel.  This is just a taste but it is well worth reading the whole thing:

Whenever Erika encountered a story problem, she'd describe it, and I – being a bloke – would come up with a simple solution that was clear, elegant and always so utterly wrong she'd immediately devise her own. I don't think she once followed a suggestion of mine.

And no, I have yet to read Fifty Shades.  Not really my cup of tea.
