Two New Solicitation Bewares: DiscoverPublishers.com and Reseller Ventures - Writers Beware(R)

Watch out for these guys!
Watch out for these guys!
As Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere today, the Panzermobile was suddenly shaken by booing and hissing outside. Following all the noise, took our brave kitty boy to the Writer Beware(R) site. There he found a post about two online companies writers need to ignore.
 
 In her post Victoria Strauss documents her investigations of two online companies, DiscoverPublishers.com and Reseller Ventures, soliciting writers about their books through emails. She has determined both are scams. Her investigation of both are very thorough, so you should read the details yourself.

Panzer says, "If you hear from either of these guys, turn around and run away as fast as you can."

Note: This is a long post. Bring a cup of hot cocoa and a muffin to snack on while you read.

Your Monday Panzerism

 Panzer on the serious topic of love:

Cats are not fickle with their love the way humans are.

This makes our love superior.

Cats examine the world as young kittens ...

And ...

Decide who their true love for life will be.

You are a distant second though.*
Stop smiling Mom ...

It's not you,

You silly human.

It's me.




*From Cat Wisdom for humans
