Obsessive Love?

 

I am sickened by the post I read last night. After mothers day weekend the loss this person has had and the beating she continually takes at the hands of her "Obsessive Lover" I decide to stay up late to make this post. As a mother I have a lot going on in my life. But the feeling that one post brought about fueled a rage so deep inside me. A human being that says they are not to blame actually spitting the venomous shit that she did.  "I named no names Ember"!  Delusional much Lepp! Because everyone that knows you and your ugly word slinging blog of hatters never meant "She Who Must Not be Named". Please, and pigs flew over my house last night too!

Your sick you know that! Accusing someone of murder, fake suicide all while your the one who tightens the rope. (ohh so sorry lightly wound it right?) You feel that your fun and games have no consequence to you. That your actions have no ramification's to bind you due to the cause of your hate. It's all just do right? All this heat from the hate has me fanning myself in need a of a good tweak myself,  if you know what I mean :') I get that what you have is not giving you the relief you so desperately need, but damn girl ride that horse a different way. Its not giving you that OHHH as you reach peak. Try bare back that works for me! Then again I think that real problem is jealously blinded by hate. You want what other have. You don't play nicely with others unless you like what they have to say. Then everyone close to who you want protects her so you cant become that Mistress you so dirtily crave. Hey I could swing both ways too!  I personally have never spoke with her but I see the fire she stirs deep in you. The fire it fuels to want to hold, posses with your "Obsessive Love".

 
I did the read hair just for you. See I'm not heartless.
 
Obsessive love is a hypothetical state in which one person feels an overwhelming obsessive desire to possess another person toward whom they feel a strong attraction, with an inability to accept failure or rejection.

                 

SO I have had enough for the night I must get some sleep So think on this.
Who are you following? What is she really trying to prove? Why does she keep the repeat button pushed in? Why has this business issue become about a persons personal life instead of business? Why is she involving a child in the mix weather the other brought her into it or not? And why has she not gone to the proper authority's about the said child? I'll answer that one for free!! "The father told her thank you for letting me know who will be the cause of my daughter mothers death. Now I know who to blame." The easier to find you right Lepp? That's the reason everyone she hit a brick road not getting her way. Lepp has posted too much proof of hate for CPS to take her accusations to light as well as the letters to the PO as proof that she is out to get "She Who Must Not Be Named". I'm sure f they felt the child was endanger they would be the first to intercede am I right? Just food for thought!

Third Party Sales / Who is listed as your Publisher?





Who is your Publisher based off your ISBN choice on CS:

All this talk about Royalties and Third Party Sales. I have to say as an author I had no idea this was how it worked. The Publisher I use takes care of all this for me. I never have to worry legally how to track down my money. They do it for me!

 

A lot of my Self-Publishing Authors friends have taken the liberty to hand over research they had done on their own tacking down those Sellers on Amazon who have a store selling there work.  

 

See when you chose CS free ISBN or CS $10.00 IBSN you are excepting Createspace as the listed Publisher.  If you buy the one they list cheaper than on the Bowker site then its $99.00. That one or any you have already or bought you then can list your Publisher.

 

OK so here it is the SP economic route ISBN route through CS = Createspace as Publisher and Distributer

 

Bowker discount offered on CS $99.00 or $125.00 for 1 on Bowker website = Your Own name or Publisher’s name as Publisher and You choose your distributer.

 

Here is the link if you don’t want my word for it! https://www.createspace.com/Products/Book/ISBNs.jsp

Third party sales!!

 

Amazon Third Party Retail Sales

 

 

Retailers, including Amazon, allow third-parties to sell products on their websites. If your book is available through the Amazon.com or Amazon Europe sales channels, then these third-party sellers may also list your book for sale on your Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.es and Amazon.it detail pages. CreateSpace is not directly affiliated with these sellers and cannot control the selling price and condition (new or used) of these listings. Here are some examples of these types of listings:

          Sellers can list your book for sale without physical inventory on-hand. When the seller receives a customer order, they then place an order from Amazon.com, Amazon’s European websites or CreateSpace to fulfill this demand and drop-ship it to the customer. At that time, your title is manufactured; you earn a royalty, and the order is sent to the end customer.

          For books enrolled in Expanded Distribution, third-party sellers can create listings on various retail sites both domestically and internationally. These sellers can source your title from the distributors we work with through Expanded Distribution, to fulfill customer orders. Once the title is manufactured, an Expanded Distribution royalty will be reported in your account within 8 weeks.

          Sellers can list used copies of your title for sale. If a used copy is sold, you will not receive a royalty for this sale because you previously received the royalty when the title was manufactured and originally sold.

          Copies that you purchase of your own title, also known as member orders, may end up being listed for sale on a retail site. Member orders are purchased at a discounted price and do not earn you a royalty. If you give these copies away or sell them to a wholesaler, it's possible that they may become available for purchase on a retail site. Keep in mind that once your book is in distribution, it can change hands multiple times. If this happens, you will not receive a royalty for the sale because the title is re-sold using a book that you originally purchased at a discounted rate.

 

Earned Royalties

 

For books, CDs, and DVDs, you earn royalties every time we manufacture a product to fulfill a new customer order placed on Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.es and Amazon.it, your eStore, or through Expanded Distribution.

Royalties for your title may occur without a royalty payment if the item is listed by a third-party reseller, or "Marketplace" seller. You have already been paid a royalty from the first time the unit was manufactured, even if the reseller lists the item's condition as "new."

We cannot control, track, or pay royalties on previously purchased copies of your title through other resellers or distribution channels; you are only paid royalties for new copies of your title that we manufacture to fulfill orders.

   https://www.createspace.com/Help/Index Key words "Third party sales"

 

OK Kiddies are we caught up now? Just because the Store/Vendor lists your books does not mean they are being sold so you have Royalties coming in period! The Publisher if you have the Free or $10.00 ISBN number allows Createspace to act as your Publisher. If you bought the $99.00 or your own from Bowker then you can choose this option.

 

HELLO!!!!!!!!

This is… expanded distribution…

I have not Fizzled nor Popped!


Sorry all I have not stopped a things as other have you believing. I have been doing repairs to my property for the new cattle we have. I do have a life to carry on that takes precedence over this blog. I am back and ready.

First proof that I bought my profile picture because let’s face it being called a thief by someone who is off her rockers needs to be shown. According to her everyone is who she says they are so lets me prove her wrong. I know in this her actions are in hope to gain whom I am. Sorry Hun sit an stew in it a little longer.

 


 


While off my daughter was doing research for a University she wants to attend next year. She was accepted already! Study Psychology was her choice so imagine my surprise when she called me in to take a gander at a blog a few faculty follow. https://anupturnedsoul.wordpress.com/2013/12/26/answering-questions-about-narcissists/

Reading through this blog I fell in love with the witty humor and realistic cause behind this post.

 

“Narcissistic discard when it’s not about them?”

 

“Narcissists use conversation as a means of securing ‘Narcissistic Supply’. They need acknowledgement, affirmation, confirmation of their existence and that they are who they are pretending to be. You are there to support their magnificence. You’re the applause of the audience after a performance. They also need a million other things from you. There is no time for you and it has to be all about them. If you talk about yourself or a subject which interests you but does not interest them, they switch off. The only reason they will listen to you talk about yourself is when they are seeking information about you to become you, they are gathering information about how to steal your identity. So when you first meet them they will focus all their attention on you and batter you with personal questions aimed at finding out everything they want to know about how to become you. Once they have what they want, you are no longer needed, and they discard you because to keep you around might be dangerous to them, especially if they are now pretending to be you. No one else can know that you exist or their game might be discovered and their new mask will get ripped off.

 

If you’ve been in a relationship with a Narcissist, you’ve felt the sting of sudden abandonment and rejection. They leave when they please, and they return when and if they feel like it. Yo-yo-ing. They do not know who they are, sure they have many versions and ideas about who they are, and never shut up about who they are and what they do (without ever doing anything they say they do), but none of them are real. If they could, they would put their missing core self on a milk carton, but if you found it they’d reject that too. They tend to discard those who get closest to their real identity. They are afraid of that. All their behavior is driven by fear. If you saw the face behind the mask, even if you were not afraid of it, and they saw you seeing it, they are afraid of it and now of you… so they get away.

 

Discarding people is a defense mechanism for them.”

 I see this in steady supply on a blog. Naming that blog will not do at this time. See them giving something a name gives it power I think it just fuels the bullshit they dish out. Like me being gone dealing with adult life providing for my children. Don’t take that time where they needed it to blog, make notifications to alert me to each new post or comment. No I don’t even deal with FB or Twitter. I tune them out delving into the deep pit that is my life as a single mom running a ranch/farm. My alt sits steady waiting for me when I return from a busy day. So when I read about FB alts that stalk I do “SMH”!  Why is it that you do that, have an alt due to being blocked then use it in blind faith to stalk the very same person you claim is stalking you.  Seriously do you not get that you are just as bad as them. No excuses you stalk they stalk so it is the same just keeping an eyes out for the others. If you don’t like that then leave them alone, block them, restricted them, or just delete your account.

 
This is not my last post I just have decided to take it to a new level.  One were adults will see that  two wrongs don’t makes rights and rights/apologies/ taking it back can hardly ever make it better after the damage is done. What is the true definition of “Repentance”?

Author Eater part 2


Kiddies sit back, let’s go for a ride!

If you threaten me make sure I cannot lower that Boom….

Warning what you see here posted is quoted as evidence so I want to share it with you. Be Leary of the Author Advocate and her luminosity of and on authors whom her Good Samaritan puppets track down. The “Author Eater” “Deal Maker” has taken from all that she list on her blog poking fun. You will see what I mean as I go.

Please follow along!

 


 



 


 
 
 
 
See her puppet went after authors on Goodreads and countless other sites. Was that right, if she really bought the book instead of sampling as she even admits to not reading it? This is sad and Lepp JT Larson calls herself an author? She even gets in on the laugh at the authors expense, poking fun at her instead of contacting her and helping her with her issues. No she sits on her blog defacing her.
I want her as my Author Advocate don't you!! (sarcastically laughing)  We have seen her go after Leah for believing she was me. We have now seen were she goes after author's so called victims, associate's and etc. of Tabetha Jones. Damn if you are friends with her on FB ABORT ABORT! The Author Advocate is coming to look you up and we all see what happens when Lepp make a decision on hate. She post  want she wants your name on her blog and "down with you, you evil author, business person etc." she wants to talk copyright infringement as well as theft?
I don't need to make a warning or threat Lepp you already see me in your review. Your hate Blog if created by a kid would be held accountable for Cyberbullying as well as Cyberharassment. Their parents could spend time in jail as well as be Fined. What would that local High school think, what with a living arrangement where you are a contributor to hate and have puppet's telling people to kill themselves. Think of that the next time you contact a Probation Officer out of hate and spite. The same can happen to you only you created your blog to take someone down collecting money for them to wanting them placed in jail. A lady who said "I am not heartless" yet has no care of the destruction she leave behind in her wake. Your days of exploiting author's over your hate and fake care are over!
And honey I do it with your own sweet evidence!!

Author Eater (part 1)

Threat or to Threaten is:
: a statement saying you will be harmed if you do not do what someone wants you to do
: someone or something that could cause trouble, harm, etc.
: the possibility that something bad or harmful could happen
:  an expression of intention to inflict evil, injury, or damage
 
I was also Warned!
Then an innocent bystander a artist for hundred of authors take a hit intended for me.
 
Don't you see yet that Lepp aka JT Larson is a Paranoid schizophrenic?
 
I make a comment in passing on my post that leads to a threat a warning to take down my business. ruin my authors as well as any associates I have. Sad thing is that she saw to that long ago. What with her idealization that any and all business, companies, author etc. that freelance, work for or do anything with Tabetha Jones will fall at her feet. And yes, I have that all reworded, re asked, repeatedly. I like to cover all bases. See I can say it all with out using bully or hag. And again yes I called her that.
 
True, I was lost in the euphoric pleasure of her own undoing! Amiss the babble of me being Leah which I told her I was not, yet it still didn't matter for the fact she was beginning her dismantle campaign on all front of FB messaging. The line had been drawn. As I sit here shaking my head with my mask hanging low. I questioned my self. What I wanted to stand for rereading that blog archive for archive. I asked it if was worth it then I got a message I had been hoping for. It was Leah! I apologized to her repeatedly for this threat to her and her companies. And she never once asked who I really was or anything else other then asking "What was wrong with that lady"? 
That's the real question. What happened on her way to recovering her daughters money to the "Beast" that is lurking for any author whom gets tangle in its path.  
 
"To coral with the Beast means your ultimate demise"!
See here how can any author or business get ahead when she even has her puppets believing her lies. Lies that I am Leah when in fact I am not her I can tell you I sure the hell cant draw or color between the lines! Just go to her blog and find out how far gone she is. Lepplady.wordpress.com See Leah tell her she is not Ember and how they twist it all to be her fault. Don't worry I have more for Author Eater part 2

Tit for Tat

Tit for tat

Is an English saying meaning "equivalent retaliation". It is also a highly effective strategy in game theory for the iterated prisoner's dilemma.




I have not forgotten for I am a patient woman
I do not play games I wish you not to see
I will pull from your push as I return a punch

Do not try to figure out me
For I wear a mask to deceive
But please you must forgive me

I must teach what you hear
It's not all true you see
I have not forgotten
For I am patient woman

I Apologize !

I apologized Tabetha said then we all looked, well yes she did. Repeatedly from what I have seen. Here we go!

 
 
 
 
I have a few more things to share. If she paid and she apologized why did Lepp continue with her rampant assault?
Also why does she go to the extreme harassing authors by chasing them down and shoving it in their faces. "IT'S OUR CHOICE""WE DIDNT ASK YOU"
Seriously, did they ask you to kick them while they were down from  your already profound disrespect of their choices? You play it off as you are doing us a favor. We remember that as we remember being left out in the cold to fin for ourselves as we watched the slaughter take place over the hill. Those screams still echo in our ears, can you hear them....
My brothers and sisters whom dreams were murdered by your own hands Lepp. Take responsibility of your actions stop blaming someone else.
Any questions as to who is stalking, who is harassing or who's making threats now? Every two weeks? Why Lepp? Someone different? Are you using Alts?

Enough!


Enough!

Demands, hate, blackmail. When does the evil web end? Before or after the spider laying her eggs die? Too much is not enough… Yet the psychobabble continues until both sides shed their skin as we waite with batted breathe to see what lays underneath.

Crazy, sick or just curious clutching at the lens of that microscope.

We want to know everything even when sometimes it’s best not to wake the unknown. So the question really is when it will be ENOUGH to quench our thirst on this story. We are not journalists yet we analyze depicting a life that really was pardon long ago. Yet the “Deal Maker” changed her promise with a direct hit less than three months later. Why, well she wanted to...

The “Deal Maker” continued with her blog tearing authors apart because of their choices so said “be demand you authors who chose to defy me…. You did this to yourself” The “Authors” pull themselves up from the dirty ground trying to fight the “Deal Maker” but she is no match for them as they creep back under the rocks and scorched foliage they so desperately wanted to rise from, making their dreams come true… But at last as the Raven spoke to a tempered author. “Rise from the Ember’s you sweet dear” As this newly named Ember rose she looked to the scorched Woods with limbs full of Ravens ready to take to the fight. “On this day I will stand for one and all, every author the “Deal Maker” has stepped on in her path to Restitution that had already been fulfilled.  I Ember Ravenwood will keep to the fight only dealing out truths as they come.”

Let me tell you this story with COPY and PASTE evidence that came directly from the source…
 

Check out the dates...
So Lepp calls Tabetha Jones a Malignant Narcissist but really as the definition lays out it looks like I can throw those word right back at ther Lepp (JT Larson) is a Malignant Narcissist...
 (Malignant narcissism is a psychological syndrome comprising an extreme mix of narcissism, antisocial personality disorder, aggression, and sadism.)
(Sadism involves gaining pleasure from seeing others undergo discomfort or pain)

I see aggression as well as sadism.... What do you all see?
 The "Deal Maker" thrives off the discomfort and pain she causes the authors who just want their Freedom of their Right's represented in choosing a publisher.

Dear  "Deal Maker" You might think you are the winner in breaking us down right along with Tabetha. Just remember that we have all be broken once. As you cross your heart living with no regret we wear a smile not showing that we have been hurt by this. Sometimes the left behind feel like the only one but we were born to try we are only human after all. So I lay my hand on the left behind... yeah we all know how it feels to be forgotten for awhile...  I am here and I will not look the other way making it easier for you if I run. I am done being forgotten , I want to smile as I release the pain you have caused.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD)

If you notice Empathy plays a big role in NPD.

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a Cluster B personality disorder in which a person is excessively preoccupied with personal adequacy, power, prestige and vanity, mentally unable to see the destructive damage they are causing to themselves and to others in the process.

Narcissistic personality disorder is characterized by an over-inflated sense of self-importance, as well as dramatic, emotional behavior that is in the same category as antisocial and borderline personality disorders.

In addition to these symptoms, the person may display arrogance, show superiority, and seek power.

The symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder can be similar to the traits of individuals with strong self-esteem and confidence; differentiation occurs when the underlying psychological structures of these traits are considered pathological. Narcissists have such an elevated sense of self-worth that they value themselves as inherently better than others, when in reality they have a fragile self-esteem, cannot handle criticism, and often try to compensate for this inner fragility by belittling or disparaging others in an attempt to validate their own self-worth. Comments and criticisms about others are vicious from sufferers of NPD, in an attempt to boost their own poor self-esteem.

Another narcissist symptom is a lack of empathy. They are unable to relate, understand, and rationalize the feelings of others. Instead of behaving in a way that shows how they are feeling in the moment, they behave in the way that they feel they are expected to behave or that gives them the most attention.

People who are diagnosed with a narcissistic personality disorder are characterized by exaggerated feelings of self-importance. They have a sense of entitlement and demonstrate grandiosity in their beliefs and behavior. They have a strong need for admiration, but lack feelings of empathy

Two types of narcissistic defenses that were measured with eating pathology were "poisonous pedagogy" and "narcissistically abused". Poisonous pedagogy is one who places blame on others and is overly critical of others' inadequacies. The narcissistically abused are those who put others’ needs before theirs yet see themselves as being poorly treated.

Recent research has identified a structural abnormality in the brains of those with narcissistic personality disorder, specifically noting less volume of gray matter in the left anterior insula. This brain region relates to empathy, compassion, emotional regulation, and cognitive functioning.
Thank you Wiki!

Narcissistic Behavior: pt 1


How far does one go to make a point on a blog? This will go fast but believe me I have plenty more.

So Lepp posted over on her HATE blog about Tabetha Jones yet again. Yeah, this don’t surprise me or any others who read her rubbish daily, hourly or weekly. But I found this one post absolutely shocking! Maybe not a shocking as it should have been as they all talk crap, coming to me blasting me with critical absurdities of my nature and post I allow and don’t allow. I for one would never have allowed this post. Here we go!!  


 

 As you see the premeditation of what some would like to do towards Tabetha Jones on their own accord, or to the extreme in which one JT Larson brings their anger to alarming heights’.  
 Narcissistic behavior is on the rise over at Lepplady.wordpress.com. See it all for yourself.
How is any author to survive the HATE train as it is formed from a so called deal that Lepp never intended to keep? Yeah ladies and gents, I have it all the full conversation that Lepp made to Tabetha about being square then all the sudden the deal was off the table as she harassed Tabetha until she was told to back off then as Lepp proclaimed “GAME ON” as she made a post over on her blog at the same time.
This is how one strives to become the bullying that has taken dreams as well as almost lives. In court this is all submitable. So people if you have had a loved one try to take their life due to JT Larson (Lepp) then contact an attorney. Just because the state you live in does not have a cyber-bully law does not mean that actions cannot be taken to make Larson pay for her HATE!  Your local law enforcement agency will file a report and that dear will make a tracking data file established on Lepp’s lovely blog. Enough said people have a wonderful day.

P.S. I have plenty more truths coming your way!

Negotiations

Negotiations are taking place as I type this here. I in hope will have a few thing rectified by this evening. It was never my exact intention to take things to this extreme. Unfortunately Lepp as well as a few others seem to think they can make moves calling authors out, ruining them all because they are friends or what ever she calls it with a women she hates. That sickens me. I might be a lot of things but I have not ever taken it to the max that Lepp has.

Like I said if all go's as I would like then things here will change!. That is my little secret.

Stock Photo's

Ok, lets talk Stock Photo's. There are so many places to get cheap copyrighted stock that you can do with as you wish. Manipulate, etc.

I find it funny that here I sit completely legal paying taxes on my book royalties. Buying rights to stock images for my books, and this here blog. Really people should watch what they say. I mean I can prove that I paid for each and every downloaded file I have ready for stock use.  It's down right degrading for this nitwit to go on recorded as calling me a thief. That should say enough about the type of person Lepp is. That she lumps everyone as a  piece of crap destroyer of an image who is not no better then her. And well in some aspects I could be defined by my actions. But as a thief, not!

That's what makes this beautiful that I can sit here and watch the lengths she is willing to go to discredit me and what I am telling you all over here. The venom in which she has downcast me and the way I proved she is a vindictive person. I think if Tabetha had the money she would have seen Lepp in a court room buy now. The fact that Lepp told her "pay my daughter and I will make this all go away". Then her daughter gets paid money that the old owners of Mystic Press owed her. I don't know about you all but that's BLACK MAIL! Coercion!

 Blackmail is an act, often a crime, involving unjustified threats to make a gain or cause loss to another unless a demand is met. It is coercion involving threats of physical harm, threat of criminal prosecution, or threats for the purposes of taking the person's money or property.

That says it all, and thanks to one of you I even have it here in a comment as proof!

Off topic... Lets get back to business.

Taking a break!

I have been posting a lot so I am taking a break to get more Post lined up for next week. A lot of you have stopped by and said nothing. However if you are looking for something in general of books, publishing, editing, etc Then please leave a comment. If you want information on something I have talked about but not posted on please again leave a comment. You don't like a post leave that comment under that post please to keep them in order.

Again please be reminded I am not defending anyone. I have no side and it will stay that way. I can be pissed off at who I want that does not make this blog any thing other then what it is. A blog that talks about what it wants. A blog that can find the truth in what they post about or facts either way. And I would rather have an audience argue with me or ask question then the ones that cuss me and tell me I am someone I am not. (laughing so hard as they try to figure me out) If you don't like what I am posting then leave a comment or don't read it again. I could care less about how you feel about me this is not a blog to see how many friends or enemies I can get. I post my opinions that I feel are right and according to the law I am within my legal right to do so. Journalists, press, news affiliate's as well as others thank you for that!

And this one goes out TOO?

At the end of the day this song makes me think of you: Lepp's Sock Puppets!
It's true you all do what your taught.

CYNICS and CRITICS

We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
If you're happy and you know it clap your hands like this
Cause the rest of us are wondering what on earth we missed
If you're happy and you know it stomp your feet real loud
The rest of us could use some cheering up right now
Oh please, shoot us up with something shiny and quick
We like our thrills dirt cheap and our irony thick
Oh whatever, never mind, we're just crying for help
I guess we'll heal the old fashioned way and do it ourselves
Oh this is all we know
Oh tragic and miserable
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
Oh this is all we've got
Oh we do what we've been taught
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
Sometimes I think we push your buttons just for fun
Sometimes I think our kind of crazy has already been done
We're a copy of a copy, everything we swore we'd not be
Yeah, the truth hurts, but it hasn't strung enough to stop me
Oh please, can't you give us something better than this
We've built up a tolerance to all your veteran tricks
You're busy smiling on cue, when you don't have a clue
We're a mess and we know it, we want you to know too
Oh this is all we know
Oh tragic and miserable
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
Oh this is all we've got
Oh we do what we've been taught
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
If you're happy and you know it then there might be something wrong with you
What's the point in holding on when all of us don't want you to
It'd make us feel better, knowing you'd be stuck forever
Sick minds stick together, we can stay sick forever
Oh this is all we know
Oh tragic and miserable
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
Oh this is all we know
Oh tragic and miserable
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
Oh this is all we've got
Oh we do what we've been taught
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway
We're not cynics, we just don't believe a word you say
We're not critics, we just hate it all anyway

XOXO Book Inferno 

Reader's Choice

Ok so I have touched on a couple different subjects. Now I'm going to let my readers decide what I post next.


1.) Uncover piece by piece the publishing company that Lepplady is protecting.

2.) Giving a publishing company a bad name without truthfully knowing who or what they are just by an author residing in that company.

3.)Dive into blackmail.

4.) You name a topic.

 I hope that I  have let those you come here in hopes to call me out as Ms. Tabetha Jones see that I really, really am not her or a sock puppet. I am an author who has a personal issue with someone taking my writing putting it on a butcher block then destroying it without ever once reading it. Then blames a company for it! Never taking responsibility for making others take it out on the ones she calls that companies victims. That blog is running sacred as I expose information I have from a few fellow authors that are just tired of the crap!

Pricing: Acceptable or Gouging

When publishing and/or buying a book many authors and/or readers struggle with the prices. What is too much and what is acceptable?

Recently there has been talk about a famous author (noted she is with a big time publisher *not a small backdoor inbred press*) having her e-book over $11. Is it too much?

1)      We do not know the cost of making the book but I am sure eleven bucks is a bit steep.

2)      Bare minimum—her book is a lengthy story. One must ask the question—how others are asking readers to buy their work at outrageous pricing?

As a reader, I would rather pay the overpricing for a book by a reputable author than a low grade indie author/publishing house that has never had anything published before. Buying from them is like buying your favorite soda, you know what you are getting; the quality of the work.  I love the indie authors and the world in which they come from. I read indie before I read traditional. So do not get off track.

During a search for a book I been anticipating, I found a grueling discovery.

30 to 50 pages in a book for $2.99 …..What?

I get the fact that listing them at that price gives one higher royalties well that is if you sale a book period! A couple of things can be discussed from here.

1)      Is the author putting it up at that price to get 70% vs. 30%?

2)      Is the publisher marking up the cost so their money comes in at a higher rate as well?

3)      If you sale no books, do not understand that it because of multiple reasons and price could be one or more them?

4)      Did the so called owner/owners know that pricing high would keep them from having to turn money in authorities (take this from where you want because there is more than just one publisher that is under this. Not to mention the one on paperwork with another listed as owner.)

 

What is the price you will pay for a book under 100 pages? Do not be shy for there are poetry books, anthologies, and short stories that fall into the under 100 category.

Think about simple math, for this exercise does not take a degree in algebra to figure out when no sales are coming in, the business (author and publisher) get NO, I repeat NO money. If one has to mark down or start listing prices much lower, if you sale just only ONE book you will make more than praying someone buys the book at the higher price. Yes, an abundance of “if’s” play into effect but if you still sale nothing, then reconsider dropping that work out of the publishing world.

Remember the readers are the ones buying the book. So if you will not buy books at that cost, then most likely neither will the readers. Each person has a different threshold or the amount he/she will spend on a book. Your reputation is on the line when a publisher posts listing of your book with an outrageous mark-up (along with editing, grammar, blurbs, etc…these will be discussed at later times.)

Oh! Before I sign off this blog post I would love to remind everyone that buys a book not to return it because you have a burr up your ass. Many authors and publishers deem you as a BOOK THIEF! In the upcoming post I am sure that will be up for talks. This is a blog about information about helping all those involved with issues book related. Please feel free to leave a comment, question, and/or opinion.

Have a wonderful day,

Book Inferno

Delusional or just Pure Hate?

Delusional I say, but that is my opinion.
 How my post can create such a monster is beyond me. But even know she is still saying she know for a fact who I am expressing it in her lasted post. I didn't laugh like I normal would have because the subject matter in which she tried to debase me! This is said that ones obsession can lead to mind altering manifestation. But trust me everyone she know who everyone is. NOT! Just read for your self the garble of a true stalker!

She has this to say:
Lepplady on said:
A little birdie tells me that Tab’s mom was put on life support a couple days ago, and it isn’t looking good. I’ve talked to her mom, and she seems like a sweetheart. My prayers go out to her, and I ask that yours do, too.
I’ve got to say, if my mom was on life support, I know where I’d be. They’d have to get the national guard to pry my ass out of the hospital. But where is Tab? Trolling my blog, creating this fake ass company and making up new fake names online.
What a heartless fucking bitch.
Before you know it, she’ll be blaming me and all the stress from the “slander” “lies” and “hate” of this blog for her mom’s declining health, without stopping to think that since every word on this thing is the absolute truth, SHE’S responsible for every single bit of it.
I can’t help thinking that it wasn’t too long ago when I lost a member of my family, Tabetha cackled like a hen, claiming responsibility for it because she sicced her Voodoo practitioner on me. Called it “karma” if I recall. And now that one of her own is ill, she’ll lay that at my doorstep, too. She just can’t take responsibility for a single thing in her miserable life. Can’t even be bothered to stay with mom in the hospital because she’s too obsessed with trolling me.
Authors, co-conspirators, anybody associated with Tabetha Jones… If this heartless wretch doesn’t even care enough about her own mother to stay with her in the hospital on life support when any moment could be her last, what makes you think she gives a shit about you?
Think about it.

Oh but it gets better as she continues to say that I am Ms. Jones

Still saying you’re spending your time with your kid and not obsessing over me?
Okay. Explain this. Nine hours ago, you post an empassioned plea asking for prayers, just a few hours after I did. I guess trolling here and seeing that reminded you that you should do the same. Gotta TRY to look like the weeping, concerned little daughter, for appearances sake, don’t we? Never mind that you can’t keep my name off your lips long enough to do it. Must taste really good, you keep it there so much. Can’t resist reinforcing the lie that you’re not calling the shots at DS, either. The two things most important to you. Me, and your lies. In that order, apparently.
Yet 8 hours ago, after begging for time to deal with the (impending) loss of your mother, you’re posting your own happy little hate blog. Book Inferno, not only on your own profile, but also on Destiny’s at EXATLY THE SAME TIME. But you’re still saying you’re not Destiny, right. Thought so. Dedicated to taking down little ole me, the authors here, and the publishing company that she hears lurks in our midst.
Still wanna say how you’re taking care of your darling little family?

Who is obsessing over whom? It then goes on to post my very first post on this blog! WOW how low can a person who says they don't hate this Ms. Jones go. I mean I know who I am but she doesn't. However like I said in the post before she will look at her list of names and only go with Tabetha Jones. Oh, she just wants to keep her from scamming people and authors.
I'm interested in hearing what the owner of Dark Storm Publications has to say about the negative feed she is getting.  The negativity that is unwarranted due to that fact it is not Phoenix Fire Publishing. It is Dark Storm!

This was not an intended post but to see how cruel some can be. I do not know Ms. Jones personally. I hope her mother finds strength and comfort when her daughter can be with her. From experience as a single parent, yes I would never leave my mothers bed side but if my child needed me my mother would rather me take care of them.  There would be nothing I could do but cry and remember the best of what we had of our time from birth to the present. Love her even after her last breath. My mother wouldn't want her grandbaby to see her that way, but for me to make the day a good one for them even as I feel like drowning. That is what a mothers love teaches you.

This crap you spew to your audience makes me sick. Letting a little girl be called a whore basically and yet you don't bat an eye. I read that this whole blog of yours became after Mr. Jones wronged your daughter. I ask what would you say or do if someone called your daughter what you have hers. I can tell you it would have been just as conflicted and nasty as she has to you don't you think. What kind of people go around bashing children for sport.

I have nothing more to say other than I AM NOT TABETHA JONES!!
