Welcome to the world of print-on-demand publishing. And, to book editing in India. And, to the tort of Editorial Malpractice. The circle would be complete if the author has found a lawsuit-on-demand law firm with its paralegals in India.

Writer's lawsuit claim: editing on the cheap.

Seems an aspiring author took some offense at Charleston-based Booksurge LLC, an on-demand publisher.

Leon Koziol, a former city councilman and candidate for state senate in Utica, N.Y., has accused Booksurge of outsourcing the editing of his book to India and delivering thousands of volumes with upside-down text and "words not found in the dictionary." Koziol is seeking $11 million, including $1 million in punitive damages, from the print-on-demand company and its corporate parent, Amazon.com Inc.
