Warning to writers

While you are worrying about whether beta readers will steal your ideas, there is a more genuine threat on the horizon.

When offered a publishing contract, please do all your research before you sign. There are a number of fakes and scammers out there, as well as good-intentioned amateurs that don’t know how to get your work to a wide audience. I won’t tell the heartbreaking stories here - there are too many.

Being published badly is worse than being never published.

It can destroy your career and your dreams.

The quick check is to google the publishing house name + scam or warning.

But, to be sure, check with these places first. They aren’t infallible (nothing is) but they can help you protect yourself. They are written and maintained by expereinced writers, editors, publishers and legal folks.

Keep yourself and your work safe.

Mello x Matt x OC

+ Bonus Near & OC friendship (?) post-ending

If I wrote a series called ‘The Lost Tales’ where I basically write one shot style bullshit of my OCs from random universes (such as Dragon Age, Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire and Star Wars) which basically detail random little points of their life (which may or may not later develop into full-blown stories) but their lives have little to nothing to do with the main plot of those franchises, would anybody be interested?
