In his novel "American Psycho", Bret Easton Ellis borrowed a character from Jay McInerney's book "Story of My Life" (Alison Poole). In a recent interview he said that the inclusion of Alison Poole was because he was upset at McInerney over something (he couldn't recall) and his revenge was to have her attacked by Patrick Bateman. She then appeared in his novel "Glamorama."

Bret Easton Ellis is close friends with fellow novelist Jay McInerney.
