    Thats true. However, there are self-publishing sites mentioned in the link that I put in my post that allow authors to retain even more of their income than Lulu and they are more user friendly.

  • Gabe posted an update 6 years, 1 month ago

    For those of you who write books or are interested in writing books. The Alliance of Independent Author ran by author Orna Ross has a list of a hundred self publishing services and gives accurate ratings on each one of them. Lulu got one of the lower ratings because it takes a large share of revenue from books sold on their website. This…[Read more]

    Yes, this plandemic is virulent on many levels.

    Conflict of which d$ckhead rules. Looks like one gave the other an egress option…..change management doctrines requires building the case, unfortunately his reputation may be sullied but his actionable items were enormously successful in bringing down the economy and igniting other nefarious items.

      Knows them well; all the better that she can drill their/tose concepts down into an understandable language.

    Orwellian nightmare if we don’t stop it now ….

    • … one hates to be the bearer of bad news but … one would say that we are, if not in an Orwellian one, certainly in some kind of nightmare. One might wonder how and by whom this nightmare was brought about and the means by which its maintenance and continuance seems assured.

      • Several weeks ago upon waking and routinely asking self to assess my state of mind by asking self the usual questions what day it was, what were the day’s challenges, etc…it was brought to my attention, the year was 1984, and take it from there buddy….

      • I wonder if the answer is not to push back…it feels more and more futile, as so many people are taken in by the narrative. I wonder if the answer is to form our own breakaway society. Crazy thought I know.

    No problem Justa .. and your thoughts are most appreciated .. It’s been a kinda nightmare for me but someone said to me recently .. “When you think your life is falling apart .. sometimes it is actually falling into place” .. I have learnt a LOT in the last 10 weeks ..

    • Excellent…. even though I DID say stay safe to Freefall as he suggested he is living with various people and that, for once, did seem appropriate! Just saying.

    p.s. I know a GP who has been absorbed into working on large covid wards in three very large hospitals who is saying exactly the same thing – most people have had the virus and are absolutely fine and we should not be on lockdown as it’s making matters worse but the government doesn’t want to listen. I hear an army of health professionals all…[Read more]

    I’ve read the write up to this – they offer zero evidence as to why these doctors’ tests are ‘ridiculous’ ‘reckless’ and any other ad hominem they use to denigrate these two. The main crux is because it’s not peer reviewed. We all know about the peer reviewed boys club. This article is nothing more than inflammatory nonsense, all it does is…[Read more]

    This is good news, and there will be more of this.

  • Ronin posted a new activity comment 6 years, 1 month ago

    So from what I can find, they passed a bill, “stripped it” into what’s called a shell bill, and put it on the shelf until they needed it.

    What I’m trying to find is the timeline when it became the COVID related bill or geared for something like this.

    I’ve used Blurb before with a NGO I worked with. I didn’t have too many problems using their site. We were printing single books for large donors as gifts so we really didn’t need many and as I remember they were the least expensive for the volume we have which was extremely small.

      Most of the rest of the do-it-yourself publishing are ebooks. I don’t think that is what you are looking for.

      • I looked at Lulu and Blurb.com. Lulu is cheaper than Blurb.com. Blurb.com charges $2.99 to publish a 24 page book at their small size and $0.01 for every page after that. While Lulu would only charge $2.60 for a 30 page book at their smallest size and they offer smaller sizes than Blurb.com, so more options for customization. Also, I was not…[Read more]

    Francis A. Yates – The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age, is a good place to start for this period that introduces you to the variety of concepts, ideas, art, etc, of the period. It’s a starting point, others may have some suggestions as well.
