SHITSTORM: 4790 words
It’s a beast the size of either House of Spiders or Spectral Exile. It feels good to be working on a lot of new stuff. Tabloid Purposes: Book Five is more than ready but I am providing the link for the book for those actually serious about obtaining a copy instead of making fun of the book, Ahem Mike Brendan. I am not going to answer to some shitty LiveJournal’er or some tool who decided to make another blog devoted to harassing me and doing various acts of character assassination.
I am pleased with the idea that I got a few articles that where the money is coming to me no matter how slow it would be. I am linking one of those articles up here for the masses to see and this is titled The Nature of The Cybertroll. Believe me this is all related to the new stories I am working on. I am going to be sharing some of the comments from the articles on this page and believe me most of them never signed in to actually comment. It’s actually kind of funny when you think about it especially from their hits my clout level is going up. Having 10 articles published there and having a clout level of five — that’s something you normally see with people who have 100 or more articles than that.
In other news, I am laughing my ass off that fat ass McKeeman actually resigned from Tribe.net. If you know the full history this is one of those that lasted years and like a schmuck he created a twitter account just to get under my skin. This is more like each of us take a pistol, walk twenty paces then turn around and pull the trigger. Or play Chicken with the mother fucker with me driving a semi into a compact. Call me cynical, but this fuck and I been going at it since the beginning of my publisher years. Since he did his Best of Gothic.Net Anthology: Vol 1 and it never went to print. The moment I started screaming at his boss that was the beginning of the end of his era. That’s not the end of it — he ended up joining up on the place I published a few of my projects with and his cover is so damn K-Mart looking that not even K-Mart would want to look at it. Fuckers like that don’t even deserve the fame because they don’t know what to do with it; just sit on their fat ass and harassing people who are busting their ass to make a name for themself in this industry.
If that doesn’t make him want to take a massive shit on my grave I don’t know what will. It’s been like that for many years. Especially since Tribe.net went the way of the Do-Do Bird. I am not drunk, just very damn caffinated. See the video talking about the story The Room Mate and you will see what I am talking about, I was chugging half a case of cola and I was really wired. If I was drunk they would have known it because all I would want to do is sleep. I would be very wired when I am prolific — working on stories I haven’t touched in a while or stories I started and already up there in the word count ranges.
The politics in this industry is what get to me sometimes I think. P&E will play that card too when they took a shit on Blue Phi’er. I won’t see that company as a vanity, his vehicle is one man doing everything — and that is a challenge at times. Trying not to get caught up in the day to day bullshit in the politics of the message board. Especially when people try to raid my message boards, private myspace profile, and other shit just so they can find what they can to drag something through dog shit every chance they get. All I am trying to do is trying to get my short stories sold and my anthologies in bookstores so writers can get their name out there. I think the writers who are being counterproductive to the cause make this a very hard occupation to work in, but then again I don’t see it as just that — it is a life; and running my company is a huge thing.
Running a publishing imprint is just like opening a Pandora’s Box, I am not about to shut Lake Fossil Press down as much as places like The Rusty Nail only hope. It is people like this that spawn the seed to write a story such as SHITSTORM or House of Cards. I might have a way of thinking that will piss many off, but does that give me a reason to be a blacklisted author as what Jodi Lee is trying to imply — I am going to ask her this, has she even read the magazines that published me that she attained the company of? Has she even read the anthologies I published, or she’s just one of those who will spread the shit layered lies about me? She’s another Darren McKeeman waiting to happen.
