...another "book" filled with "evidence" by "experts" is being peddled at Maggie's place...never mind the title, or writer or what it's about...the only thing of interest with these things is how the printing company tries to disguise the fact that they print anything for pay...they could care less...they don't vet the manuscript, they don;t have an editorial board to review, they have no staff experts who are knowledgeable in any subject or know their own ass from a manuscript......they just have an accountant, a bank account and a printer.

..this one is called TATE PUBLISHING...here's their blurb...


General information

Tate Publishing & Enterprises, LLC, is a Christian-based, family-owned,

...that sinks it right there.


mainline publishing organization

..it is not a "publishing" anything...it is a PRINTER.

with a mission to discover unknown authors. We combine unknown authors' undiscovered potential with Tate Publishing's unique approach to publishing and provide them with the highest quality books and the most inclusive benefits package available.

...sure, if they pay the printing costs and then IF they sell.....but TATE makes their money from PRINTING...not selling...that's YOUR problem.

Tate Publishing was formed after Founders Richard & Rita Tate published their first book with a traditional, mainline royalty publishing company. They soon found that after investing many years of their lives into their work, it was no longer theirs. The rights were now the publisher's, and the majority of the royalties were going to the publisher.

...you mean like every other author has done for 500 years?


That's when the Tates set out to redefine what a mainline royalty publisher should be. Remember, the most important step to get started is to submit your manuscript. In 2010, we accepted only a single-digit percentage of authors who submitted manuscripts for publication.

...what they mean by this is that this small number represented those who could AFFORD THE PRICE...if not just straight-out bullshit.

At Tate Publishing & Enterprises, we believe your work is just that—your work. We believe that you should make the most money from your project. You will retain all rights to your manuscript, PLUS retain the highest royalties in the business from your sales. That's the way it should be! And that's the way we do business.

...they don't have "royalties"...they don't pay their authors a dime in "royalties".....what they mean is that after you pay them ten bucks for YOUR book...you can keep whatever you sell it for..and if you should be so lucky as to sell it for eleven bucks...you get to KEEP your one dollar PROFIT...and they won't take a "percentage of YOUR 'royalties'".

...you get to "RETAIN" your royalties, by which they mean any profit you make....actual publishers PAY you royalties.

...these scams know they are scams because they don;t come out and tell the truth...they try to disguise their actual business model so dummies, like assyrians, will be fooled into thinking they found a "book" to stand next to Joseph's books.
