SR, your comment "even if there is a collection of words behind the covers, if they are just e-files and there's no distribution point/function--they are just words in an e-file, aren't they? That means anything anyone's got in their computer files is a book" is quite possibly the biggest crock of arrogant shit I've read in a long time. You need to join the rest of us in the 21st century, dude.

You missing the days when you scribbled with your quill pen on papyrus or what?


Excuse me, why? I presume you think that posting a cover image means there's ipso facto a book behind it--especially when it can't be found anywhere on the Internet other than his Face book page? That sounds incredibly naive. Why am I being arrogant to take common sense into account?

What's the 21st century stuff all about? How does that figure into anything I've posted here? Is it that you don't think I can research on the Internet? If so, pull up where these books are listed for distribution--or as existing--from the Internet and give me a URL, if you think you're more 21st century than I am.

You're just attacking wildly to be nasty, aren't you, silly girl? Not a lick of sense. :)
 
They're published, or are going to be published? by erotic excursions.

A division of Club Lighthouse? Someone else mentioned on another thread that Lighthouse was started by a Litster. Box and RRichard are also published through them.

At least, the logo on Fredericka's books is the same as on this cover.

Club Lighthouse is listed on FW. They have 54 titles available. None of which are Fredericka's... perhaps they haven't been actually released yet. They only have one title on their coming soon page.


Ah, yes, thanks. I got as far as Erotic Excursions--but I'll bet it's a case that they've been withdrawn. Not listed anywhere as coming (and it does list coming books--one with essentially the same cover as one of Freddie's.). So, best guess is withdrawn. Will see if they do materialize. (Unless Freddie would like to tell us the status of them in keeping with his posts of advising us on how to publish erotica--while he looks down his nose at the eXcessica collection.)

Erotic Excursions, by the way, isn't listed on any e-publishing distribution site that I've checked.

Again, is a cover image only with no distribution point/function behind it a book? We'll see if Freddie's "books" appear. I'd be delighted to see them go on megadistribution lists along with the books of others here to give us some sales ability comparisons. :)
 
I think they're from Club Lighthouse's erotica line? But I'm not 100% sure.

We'll see. As I said, I'd just love to see BFW, Sarahh, or Scouries titles come up on an erotic e-book megadistribution sales comparison list. :)

(Meanwhile, go look in your submissions bucket; it's been filled again--watch out the quill pen doesn't stab ya.)

Did you find this link?

http://stores.lulu.com/eroticexcursions

That's what I found in a search, anyway. Doesn't link to anything though.

You're too free with your words, Drone. Like everything else that you take up your ass, you pull your words out of your ass. Then, when someone calls you on something, like I did with you pretending to be a jet pilot. (I bet you even have the outfit, too. I think you've watch Top Gun one too many times and now you believe that you're Tom Cruise.)

Please show me the posts where I advise you or anyone on how to publish erotica.

For the record and to answer your mystery so everyone here doesn't have to read the post of you three kids, Selena and MichChick, over and again, I pulled the books last year.

Yeah, they were selling, as far as E-Books sell, and they were paying me a third of the cover price but being from Boston and having worked as an accountant for years before retiring in 1990 to enjoy the good life with my lottery winnings, I pulled the books when they could not prove their sales figures to me.

Unless you own a publishing company, as does Selena, and she's smart to do that, how does a writer know the sales the publisher gives him, especially with Internet E-books that are unregulated, if those numbers are correct? You don't. You're relying on them. I couldn't help but feel they were playing the game of 1 for him and 2 for me. Then, they turned me off when they wanted me to write a book a month. What kind of shit book can anyone write in a month. At the minimum to write anything decent takes a minimum of 3 or 4 months, even when they are doing the editing.

Besides, I didn't need the money. It was just a thrill to see my work in print, even if it was only in digital print. Now, I'm not a fan of E-books for the reason I stated above. Yes, the books were published with EroticExcursions. Then, Boxlicker solicited me asking how I got published and I introduced him to them and they published his story, too. Out of gratitude, he turned on me and started bashing my Survivor posts. He's such a prick.

So, show me where I made any posts advising anyone how to post Erotica.

Shut up or put up, Drone. There's nothing worse than a man who doesn't know what he's talking about and has to lie to have any kind of "pretend" credibility. Yeah, actually, there is something worse than a man who doesn't know what he's talking about and has to lie to have any kind of "pretend" credibility. A fag that has to lie to have any kind of "pretend" credibility is worse.

You even lie about being a homo, Drone. You tell everyone that your "bi-sexual", but the only stories you write are "Gay Men" stories. Listen, Drone, you suck a cock, you're gay. You take a cock up the Hershey Highway, you're gay. When the only stories you write are gay stories, you're gay. Come out of the closet and march in the parade because you are a gay man.

Now, there's nothing wrong with being gay. I have lots of gay friends. Only, in the way you dance around and making sure that everyone knows you're not gay, you're bi-sexual, that makes you...gay. You're gay. You're a homo. You're queer.

Because you make such a big deal of it and wave the bi-sexual flag (do they have a flag), instead of holding the queer banner, makes you gay. You're gay. Be proud of the fact that you're something because, Dude, you're nothing else but the dog shit that I sometimes step in at the dog park.

You just drone on and on about me. You're enamored with me. You can't stop posting about me. You fucking love me.

So, to stop you from droning on and on, Drone, again, show me and everyone where I made any posts advising anyone how to post Erotica.

I'm quoting you, in your entirety, to preserve your blatant homophobia for the record. I've decided that you must just get off on being nasty. Or do you gay bash because you're afraid of your own urges? I've heard that's often true of the most virulent homophobes. It's OK if you have those urges, we'll understand.

You've said periodically that you want to be a respected part of the AH. You even started a thread with that claim. You have to be smart enough to understand why you are so disliked. If not, simply look at what you wrote.

When the only stories you write are gay stories, you're gay.

You've been told this before, but I'll repeat it again in case there's anyone out there who believes anything you say. Look at his story collection and you find that he has stories posted in at least half of Lit's categories. Read of few of those stories and you'll find that they have something yours lack - a plot and interesting characters. Look at GM authors in general, and you'll find that a good number are women. Are you suggesting that we're gay too?

I'm not even going to touch the rest of your vile nonsense, other to say that I once thought there was hope for you. Now I see that you're simply incapable of civilized behavior.

I am who I am, Fresh Face or whoever the fuck you are today? Whose sock puppet are you? You and so many like you here have dozens of alts. I have one, Bostonfictionwrter.

I don't have any other alts or identities here. There are those who state that I'm Positive Thinker, I'm not. I read his recent story and can understand why some would think that after her parodied me in his or her story. Whatever.

All I know is that it takes the group of you to attack me. It takes 4 or 5 or 6 of you "whackos" to answer my charges.

I can stand here as being the self-righteous man. I can write that I never bothered anyone here. I can write that I never bashed anyone stories. I can write that I came here to write stories, but wasn't allowed to do that. You bunch of psychos are a jealous lot.

Once you saw that I could write, once you saw that I was posting more stories in a month than any of you could post in a year, once you saw that my writing and my stories were getting better and better, once you saw that I earned the prestigious green E, you all went psycho.

I was your new target. You've made me into what I am today. Never is when I'll post another story on this site. Yet, I'm here to shine the flashlight of my indifference up your asses. So, go ahead Fresh Face or whoever the fuck you are today, and return with a few more of you multiple identities to try and defend yourself against me. You can't.

And where is Drone? Are you his alter ego today? Why are you taking it upon yourself to defend him against me, when he lied is the one making all the charges that I wrote posts here on how to publish erotica.

Just as he couldn't defend himself when he was called out on not being a jet pilot, he needs others to defend himself again.

Whose next? MichChick? I'm surprised she's not pulling up a dozen quotes and changing the argument with cluster fucks that have nothing to do with anything.

Where's Selena? How comes she's not making her idiotic posts?

How many are you? Are you all the same one person? This really is nuts. You people really need to get some friggen help.

For the record, I came here to write stories not to post shit on these boards. Unlike you people I have a life and a good part of my life is writing stories.

This could be a wonderful site, but all of you must ruin it with shit. You can't stand anyone who is not a friend of yours. You won't allow them a fair chance to win a contest. You have ruined this site for those who want to write stories.

I wish Laurel and Manu would develop a software that would ban those with multiple identities, especially those using the same IP address. I'd be curious to see how many identities would suddenly disappear.

I am the self-righteous man. You people are just nuts.
 
blah, blah, blah, snivel drool...

Your one note theme has gone stale. You routinely bash writers and stories both. Anyone who's been here longer than a week has seen that.

You say that you don't like the forums? Then do us all a favor. Write your stories and stop posting here. It's easy to pass over your stories on the new list.

I'm not taking it upon myself to defend SR. He's perfectly capable of holding his own against people like you. I'm taking it upon myself to shine the spotlight on your bad behavior. I've done it before, and I'll do it again if necessary. I won't sit idly by and let you think that such virulent homophobia is acceptable.

For the record, I don't care about the contests. I know you can't wrap your head around the idea that we don't all obsess over Survivor like you do, but there you go. I'm not part of any group that has ever done anything to you or your stories. I'm just me. No alts, no gangs.

This could indeed be a wonderful site. It's better when you're not around.

I see you've written one, 1, story last year and it was a gay male story. Well, that explains a lot.

Could it be that you are the alt of the fag fictional flyer?

Let's see a show of hands for this question.

If you were Laurel and Manu would you want a writer who has contributed more than 600 stories and more than 60 poems or would they want you who has contributed one gay male story?

I ask you Fresh Face, what have you done to promote this site, a sight for writers who write stories?

Further, I dare say, that if we added all the words in your 1,000 posts on the forum boards, they would dwarf the words in your one, 1, gay male story.

Either you are the gay lover of Drone or you are Drone himself. Which is it?

I really don't give a shit if you are Drone or if you are gay...whatever.

All that I know is that I came here with a good heart and a clear conscience. I just wanted to write stories. Yet, I wasn't allowed to do that because all you sick fucks made sure that all my red H's disappeared. You made sure that I'd never have a chance of winning a contest. You called me a whiner when I complained and you twisted everything that I wrote to defend myself and called me the basher.

So bend over you flaming fucking fag and go fuck yourself.

I'm not here to write stories any more. I'm here to make your fucking lives miserable. You fucked with the wrong person.

You hate me for no apparent reason, other than the fact that I write stories. You put me on ignore. Well, ignore me now.

There ain't nothin' you can do to me or my stories now. So, go ahead. Now what? Look at what you created.
 
get rid of that page!

Infamous Page 235 – Not one [size=+2]scourian[/size] post! The reading public is aghast.

I’ve sent a IM or PM or whatever you call them to MANU :D asking he remove the page permanently from the official record.

I’m james r scouries and I’m not happy…

[size=+2]the Dolphins hated page 235…[/size]
 
february figuer are being prepared...

QUOE serena :p As for why Lit doesn't do it? I don't know. It's quite a lucrative business. Perhaps Laurel didn't think of it, didn't know, as you obviously don't, how well ebooks sell...or perhaps she's too busy with Lit. *shrug* I have no idea. I'm not Laurel :cattail:. Or Danielle :devil:, for that matter

But she’s your sister right? No, no, I don’t mean Laure :cattail:l I know she’s your great aunt… I mean the other one :devil:

Personally I’ve found that it was a heck of a lot easier just signing on with the QUEEN :cattail: and not worrying about all this ebooks, print books stuff. And very lucrative… I was even able to get the new boat… and I didn’t have to move out of my house every three months… and I could afford a guy to come and cut the grass…

Just saying…

I’m james r scouries and I’m happy with my ROYALTIES…

[size=+2]the Dolphins have trouble reading paper books…[/size]
 
Where's Drone? He needs to defend his posts.

First he claims to be a jet pilot. Yeah, we all believe that one. Then, he claims to be a famous and successful author who, instead of living the good life, loves to post on the forum boards here. Yeah, we all believe that, too.

Now, he claims that I posted something that tells everyone how to write erotica?

You're losing it, Drone. Why is it everytime you post shit, you run away and send your sock puppet, Fresh Face, to defend your lies.

Instead of bending over and taking like a woman, it's time you stood up and took it like the man, that you are not. And take off that dress, you look ridiculous.

Where have you been? Your lipstick is smeared all over your face. You've been blowing pilots again to get some information about jet planes to tell us more lies?

Instead of defending the lies you've told, when I call you on them, you switch the argument to what my writing credentials are. I told you what they are. They are the more than 600 stories and 60 poems that I have written and the two E-books that were published by EroticExcursions and withdrawn by me.

Now, tell us more about the jets. Oh, yeah, and maybe you or anal MichChick can pull the fictional post I made about telling everyone how to publish erotica.

I can't wait to read what you will lie about next. Maybe, you'll just ask about my publishing credits, again. Read above. They are there. Now, it's your turn to come clean, you dirty boy. And no more quarter for you to ride the airplane ride, until you do.
 
It's a good thing that scouries had a gardener cuz what he just layed down is definitely going to make the grass grow... :D

*snerk*

Is it just me, or do Scouries' posts seem normal compared to some of the recent flames here?

I never thought that I would use Scouries and normal in the same sentence. :eek: I have got to get out more. :eek:
 
...no more quarter for you to ride the airplane ride, until you do.

Good. I won't let my kids near one of those things. The seats are all covered with sticky white stuff and the control sticks look like they have saliva all over them... EWWWWW!
 
nonfiction sports book

It's a novel. Apparently you have a great deal of difficulty recognizing fiction, particularly with respect to my novel and your aeronautical bio.

I'll be getting back to you on the other crap you said after I touch base with my idols, scouries and BFW.
 
I am the self-righteous man. You people are just nuts.

You da man, Freddie. A gentleman, always, at least to me. Scouries too. I guess the others reap what they sow.

Since you and I haven't submitted any stories in several months, as I mentioned yesterday, I bet you get a lot of e-mail like this one I just received: "Just wondering when your gonna have new stories...feels like forever since ya posted one!!!"

Geez, I just finished two more stories. Can't wait for scouries to get that site of his up and running.

Nuts, indeed. Squirrel bait.
 
[size=+2]Panthers would puck sarahhh any day…[/size]

The only good Panther is a Pitt Panther. Your Panthers at the Caps today. Yeah, I hope you kick the crap out of Ovechkin, but lose. If you do, and the Pens beat the Stars, we'll be tied. But like I said yesterday, I think we'll both make the playoffs, although the Pens will finish with a better record. Which means you would have lost the bet, had you made it, but you were too smart for that. I mean, look what you had to give me when the Steelers won the Super Bowl and your Dolphins . . . well, there was incredible improvement. But I'll always love Dolphins for beating out the Pats for the playoffs.

Now listen, Jim, I think you should thank Selena_Kitt, sr71plt, michchick98, and Safe_Bet for keeping ScouriesWorld going full throttle last nite while you, Freddie, and I partied. Does Saturday nite duty on ScouriesWorld get overtime pay?
