Woman Meets Fifty Shades Author, Loses Her Shit

Fifty Shades of Grey author E.L. James is at Comic Con because her book is a graphic novel (heh, get it?) and because why not? According to a reporter for the AP, “Lola De La Cruz cried when she met author E L James.” Why?

“The relationship that’s in the book is something that I’ve always wanted and haven’t gotten in previous relationships, so it kind of gave me that hope that there’s something still out there,” she said as she wiped away tears after meeting James Thursday at the pop-culture convention. “It brought me back to life, so to speak.”
