*NOW PLAYS DIANA ROSS' "DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO?", & LEAVES THE ROOM....*

...TROY, I'VE DONE OVER 1000 BOOK SIGNING SINCE 9/03 & NEVER WITHIN MY TRAVELS SAW NOVELS AT 50 PAGES, NOR A DEMAND FOR SUCH. WHEN I TALK, IT'S NEVER IN THEORY, IT'S FROM EXPERIENCE: EXPERIENCE BEING THE BEST TEACHER. I GET THE WEBIFY CONCEPT, HENCE EVEN MY POSTINGS ON YOUR SITE, YET I DON'T AGREE WITH IT BEING APPLIED TO BOOK PUBLISHING. I'M ALSO AS YOU KNOW, NOT AN ADVOCATE OF FREE DOWNLOADS, .99 BOOKS OR ANY ASPECT OF BOOKS BEING DEVALUED. I'VE DISCUSSED WHY. SO, AGAIN, I DO ALL IN MY POWER TO MAKE SURE MY BOOKS STAY TOP SHELF AT TOP DOLLAR! LET ME ASK YOU THIS, AS I KNOW YOU FAVOR FREE DOWNLOADS & CHEAP BOOKS, HOW MUCH WILL THESE 50-PAGE BOOKS BE & HOW GREAT DO YOU THINK THE DEMAND & PROFITS FROM SAID MENTIONED BE? WE ALREADY EXPLORED WHY WE HAVE .99 CENT STORES & HOW THIS ALSO IS PERCEIVED WITH BOOKS, SO WHERE DO YOU SEE THIS ALL GOING. I ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER, YET WANT YOU TO HONESTLY TYPE YOURS.... GHETTOHEAT® BOOKS TO DATE, REMAIN AT $15!

PEACE & GHETTOHEAT®! I GET QUERY SUBMISSIONS OF 3-CHAPTER SAMPLES HAVING MORE THAN 50 PAGES, THAT ALONE SHOULD SPEAK VOLUMES TO THE QUESTION ASKED. PERSONALLY, I CRINGE WHEN EVEN MAJORS RELEASE NOVELS WITH LESS THAN 200 PAGES! IT'S ABOUT QUALITY ALWAYS WITH ME, NEVER QUANTITY, YET A BOOK MUST BE SUBSTANTIAL IN PAGE COUNT. I LIKE TO PRODUCE BOOKS WITH A 304 PAGE COUNT, YET I'VE ALSO DONE ONE WITH 240 PAGES--THE LEAST WAS 224, YET NOVEL ALSO MADE ESSENCE BESTSELLER (I EARLIER DECIDED TO MAKE IT A 2-PART SERIES). THE ONLY REASON I PRODUCED IT AS SUCH AS ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT WAS DOUBLED THE AMOUNT, & AS A PUBLISHER DOING PRINT RUNS, KNEW IT WOULDN'T BE COST EFFICIENT TO PRINT IT AS PRESENTED TO ME, EVEN WITH INTENSE EDITING. THERE'S A SCIENCE TO THE PRINTING PROCESS & EACH PAGE MUST COUNT. EVER SEEN BOOKS WITH BLANK PAGES IN THE BACK? IT'S BECAUSE PUBLISHER DIDN'T DO HIS OR HER HOMEWORK, THE PRINTER TELLS YOU THAT IT'S RAN IN SIGNATURE PAGES WITH COUNTS OF 2, 4 OR 8, DEPENDING WHICH PRINTER BEING USED. AS FOR PUBLISHERS/WRITERS RUSHING, EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN GOAL/PURPOSE. IF ONE IS SOLELY DOING IT FOR THE MONEY, IT'S USUALLY REFLECTED IN THE AMOUNT OF TITLE RELEASES PUBLISHED BY SAID MENTIONED PER SEASON, AS WELL AS HOW IT'S DISCOUNTED SEVERELY WITH RETAILERS & STREET VENDORS. THE NUMBERS NEVER LIE.... I MYSELF ALWAYS GO FAR AWAY FROM THE HERD: I MAXIMIZE OPPOSE TO BURNING OUT MYSELF & TALENT WITH NEW RELEASES MONTH AFTER MONTH AFTER MONTH! HOW CAN A BOOK BE MAXIMIZED IF IT HASN'T BEEN FULLY PROMOTED OR EVEN SOLD THROUGHOUT ALL MARKETS, IF MULTIPLE TITLES ARE FOCUSED ON AT ONCE? THIS IS WHY I TAKE MY TIME...THE READERS WILL WAIT IF THEY ENJOY WORKS COMING FROM A PARTICULAR PUBLISHER/AUTHOR. I HAVEN'T PUBLISHED A NEW TITLE SINCE FALL 2008...MAXIMIZING! YET HAVE NEWER ONES COMING THIS YEAR! SO AGAIN, IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT THE MONEY AT GHETTOHEAT®, I'VE ALREADY EXPLAINED THAT IN OTHER DISCUSSIONS. FROM A READERS PERSPECTIVE, A BOOK WITH SOLELY 50 PAGES WILL GET OVERLOOKED: THE SHINY-THINGS EFFECT! READERS WILL PURCHASE A THICK BOOK WHICH IS POORLY PRODUCED, THAN A THIN ONE OF QUALITY, DUE TO THEM PERCEIVING THAT THEY'RE GETTING THEIR MONEY'S WORTH--HENCE ME SAYING IT'S A SCIENCE TO PUBLISHING. I DISPISE FILLER...I FORCE MY WRITERS TO DELIVER PROPERLY UNTIL I'M SATISFIED: MEANING SOME MAY HAVE TO WRITE A BOOK FIVE TIMES BEFORE I EVEN BEGIN EDITING: HENCE ME TELLING YOU MONTHS AGO, I TREAT WRITERS NO DIFFERENT THAN TYRA DOES ON AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL, GIVING WRITERS HERE ADVERSITY TESTS BEFORE THEY EVEN BECOME GHETTOHEAT® AUTHORS! IF THEY'RE SERIOUS, THEY WILL DO ALL REQUIRED! WHY YOU THINK PUFFY MADE THE ARTISTS IN MAKING OF THE BAND, WALK FROM MANHATTAN TO BROOKLYN & BACK FOR JUNIORS CHEESE CAKE? HE NEEDED TO SEE WHO WOULD DO IT WITH EASE & WEED OUT THE OTHERS WHO COMPLAINED: "CHEESE CAKE, CHEESE CAKE" EVERY DAY NOWADAYS AT GHETTOHEAT®! I RUN A BUSINESS: ONE WHO ALWAYS NEED TO SEE RETURN ON INVESTMENT--THIS IS NOT A HOBBY, EVEN WITH ME LOVING LITERATURE! SO, NO, 50 PAGES IS NOT SUBSTANTIAL IN MY OPINION OR TO MY STANDARDS.

SEE BELOW, THANKS!

NO.

&do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent> &do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent> POETRY MONTH CONTINUES AT GHETTOHEAT®, AS ANPU, AUTHOR OF UPCOMING EROTIC ROMANCE NOVEL, THICKNESS, BLESSES US FOR OUR "YOU-KNOW-IT-LIKE-A-POET"POERY SERIES, WITH EASE... EASE Calm clear current of Caribbean Sea Carries me away from island’s sacred shores.... Propelled by inertia, moons pull upon tidal currents Carrying me away with ease…. Comfortable in caress of native home’s warm waters Kissed by the sun: mahogany skin glistens In youth, the strength of my limbs gives me confidence In old age, may my wisdom grant me prudence Sprays of saltwater stings eyes and tickles skin Bountiful ocean: so filled with life, seems fathomless Humbling is this experience, adrift upon an endless expanse of ocean To fight force of such immense power would be futile Move as gently as a long-lost lover’s embrace upon its rolling waters Horizon seems an infinite distance My anatomical form an insignificant speck, against the turquoise green waters… THICKNESS by ANPU: A GHETTOHEAT® PRODUCTION!
