Stranger Than Fiction
"Marcie Walsh may not be as celebrated a young author as, say, Jonathan Safran Foer. In fact, she doesn't even exist. Her book, ''The Killing Club,'' is quite real. It was written ''with'' Michael Malone, the prize-winning (and nonfictional) author of several mysteries, and there are 150,000 copies in print. Walsh, however, is a character on the ABC soap opera ''One Life to Live,'' which pulls in about 3 million viewers a day; the big author photo on the back cover is of Kathy Brier, the actress who plays Walsh on the show."
