If anyone still here has it, do let me know how it is. I've been considering picking it up.

Yep - I will totally snark in every single idiotic thread that I actually bother to read. And I won't be all that nice about it either, which I suppose means I might just get a few more warning points before this place goes kaboom.

The only good thing about this is that it was under a hundred pages which limited my suffering.

And yes, I meant stallion in the sense of "male horse."

Would anyone, ANYONE actually pay money for this complete crap? Because I wouldn't. :P Sometime I regret working at a publishing company that accepts any author who wants to self-publish their bad novel(s).

After seeing the umpteenth edit in which she tries to change "foster" to "froster," I'm going ahead with it. After five previous proofs (six if you count the new one), I no longer care.

I'm tired and burnt out, and with her ten million other existing errors, I shouldn't even be wasting my time on this. It's time that I come to accept the fact that stupid people won't listen to me because they're stupid and that all my efforts to keep them from looking like complete morons will forever be doomed to end in failure.

Trump and his wife and their speechwriters need to start learning to admit when they were wrong and actually apologize when they or their people screw the f--- up instead of refusing to acknowledge that anything is wrong for <x> days.

says her latest stupid author asked for a dedication and A) didn't say who it was for and B) expected me to magically write a dedication for her.

AtreiyaN7
Again, the only reason I know that this stupid, unwritten dedication (that the stupid author expects me to write for her because, yeah, it's totally my job to write things for dumb authors based on vague instructions) involves Ms. Gavin is because the bloody author rep told me. If she hadn't, I wouldn't even know THAT much atm.

Did I forget to mention that his "chapters" are basically giant descriptions of stuff that happens written in approximately the most unexciting and boring way that you could imagine?

I wonder what ASoIaFwould be like if literally no one ever spoke and the novels were just chapters filled with scene after disjointed scene of things that seem to happen to random people without any actual context like this guy's novel.

He has also managed to misspell "Sig Sauer" (the firearms manufacturer) as "Sig Saurer" and also misspelled "White House" (where the president lives and works) as "Whitehouse." Why do I get the dumbest dummies ever? *sigh*

says this other author has actually CENSORED his own swear words/slang with asterisks throughout his whole book.

is thinking about using galactic punt on that author who wants to change "foolproof plan" to "full proof plan."

I should really just let stupid authors be stupid. I'm so tired of having to argue with them/the ARs over why they can't do x/y/z (I even provide proof from dictionaries and assorted websites as necessary!) and being ignored/overruled by authors who don't know wtf they're doing.

After all, they have the right to remain stoopid.

thinks it's amazing that she had to wait TWO YEARS for an author to e-mail her back saying that she wasn't going to fix her error-filled, totally wacko manuscript!

Daryl Dixon is my favorite character on TWD, so yay! Doesn't hurt that he wasn't wearing clothes in that teaser either, tee-hee!

My friend really liked my outdoor landscaping of our shared large house in FFXIV - whee!

If they ever add in a landscaping job in FFXIV, I'm apparently set. :P I also finished the landscaping at my medium house (although I may end up tweaking the design a bit).

Oh joy - my umpteenth illiterate author who likes inserting hard returns in the middle of sentences, who makes mistakes in practically every sentence, who can't separate his dialogue correctly, and who is completely and utterly lacking in anything even remotely resembling talent!!!!!!!!!!

says great, today it's an author who keeps spelling "real estate" as "reallastate" - WTF?!
mai 30 2016 06:14

AtreiyaN7
Yeah, that was pretty bad. And here's another reinvention of "real estate" by this author: "realastate."

I'm starting to wonder if there's any point in this stupid manuscript where he gets it right. At any rate, based on the first two miserable pages of Chapter 1, I'm going to go out on a limb and estimate that he has OVER a thousand separate errors. He's bad at spelling, punctuation, AND grammar.
mai 30 2016 07:10 -
AtreiyaN7
Oh, I forgot to mention that hit hit the TAB key like ten million times in the first chapter because he doesn't seem to understand the concept of using the ENTER key to create a paragraph return. :P
