If you ever want to get your book published, never, ever, do something like this. I just. Can’t. Guh.
I’m going to quote it here, because I fear moderation will happen to it shortly.
“I don’t understand you people. I write to your new york office about a book I wrote. The true story of my grandbaby who almost died, and today he has autism spectrum disorder. The most unbelievable true story that intales the truth about how did this country arrive at 1 in 150 children being diagnose with autism. The news media have been lied to and so the world on how this desease is hitting our children, and this country needs to hear the truth in which our own government may be in on it. This could be the story of the decade when it comes to autism. I know the truth and you people don’t. How crazy is that, that your company wouldn’t even bother to call me back on a book that will sell millions of copys, even hollywood would make a movie about what happen to my grandbaby. I was knocking on your door so you can be my buplishing Co. Now I’m knocking on everys door! If your still interested, you know how to find me!”
The writer is obviously genuinely anguished but his grasp of how publishing works is, shall we say, lacking. To say nothing of his grasp of written English. I desperately hope he didn’t post his real name because that name has just gone onto the Do Not Open Anything From This Dude list.
It is so sad, because you know their heart is in it, but it will never cut the writer gig.
