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

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
