Well, I will not pretend to have read thousands and thousands of authors but so far in my life I do not recall having read any author blatantly misusing syntax and grammar, ever !
(Exception made of course of parts in novels where the author makes a character that has no education or a specific accent translated into incorrect syntax speak or write as, for instance Stephen King seems to do often) But that of course is not the issue here.
