Not As It Would Seem to Be,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How To Get Published Free and Make Money (Paperback)
About 50 percent of this short 80 page book has nothing to do with writing at all but consists of two opinion pieces written by the author on economics and politics. Some of the matter in the opinion pieces sounds racist.
The scant information on publishing that is covered in the book is for the most part available for free at Lulu the print on demand company where this book was published. Additionally the book is full of typos and grammatical errors.

The WORST Book I have ever read.,
By Texas Engineer (Houston, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How To Get Published Free and Make Money (Paperback)
I purchased this book in order to learn some vital information about getting a book published with-out contracting with an agent or publisher.
I do not know the age of the author but it was written in prose that appears to come from a ten year old, or someone whose primary language is not English or just a downright terrible writer. The grammer errors, run-on sentances, sentences with no verb present, misuse of colloquialisms all abound. I can not think of a worse way to have spent my hard earned money as this book is unreadable. I will say that some of the good content is delicately hidden behind massive writing distractions. Reading this book to uncover the few areas of content worth discovering is just impossible. This author seems to indicate he has authored several other books, so I just did an Amazon search to find the following rankings: 1,535,524 1,201,544 950,512 This author wrote one book "Noah's Ark 2012: Journal (Paperback)" That has TWO pages of prose followed by a hundred or more BLANK pages. He wants the readers to WRITE his next book for him. WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!!!!

Here's why I think this IS a 5-star book,
By Marlon C. Sanders "Amazing Formula Seal of Ap... (helotes, tx United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Hi,
My name is Marlon Sanders, author of The Amazing Formula that Sells Products Like Crazy. I rank this short, brief book 5 stars for the following reasons: 1. A good friend of mine is making $3,000 a month selling books on Amazon using this EXACT method. 2. The book delivers on the promise He shows you how to get published for free using Lulu or Lightning Press then gives you several ways to promote the books on Amazon. 3. There is no fluff. 4. I personally don't care about typos. I have nothing against thoses who do. It's just from my perspective, what does THAT have to do with knowing HOW to sell books on Amazon? Nothing. That's what. Absolutely nothing. What it does mean is the book wasn't proof read. I want to sell books on Amazon. If I want something proof read, personally, I 'll buy a slick book at the book store. 5. I had never read several of the promotional ideas in the book anywhere. the information is unique and simple to follow. 6. Yeah, the book has no graphics on the cover and isn't slick like a bookstore book. But for me, I'm buying HOW TO information. Not a slick book. 7. If you want to be entertained or read something bookstore slick, don't buy it. If you wanna learn how to sell your books on Amazon, go for it. And that's how I see it in San Antonio, Freakin' Texas. I'm giving this book right away to one of my team and tellin' them to do it for me. Marlon Sanders |
