Watch out for poetry frauds
My name is Jeffrey Michael Miller and I'm the author of the poetry book
entitled " From The Inside Out " by Publishamerica. I want to take this
time to talk about some self appointed poetry guru's who freely hand
out misleading information. Some of these people that I won't mention
by name parade around on every website and forum they can find
expressing all their ideas and notions about the world of poetry while
they themselves are the very things they are warning you the readers
about.
These very same people who give you information on how to become
successful in the world of poetry are nobodies themselves with bad
reputations that are documented on websites around the internet for
being frauds for the most part. Some of these people have been accused
of stealing the work of others and they have been ostracized and
disowned by their very own publishers but they still come on sites like
this hiding the truth about themselves and making it look to you the
reader like they are successful and sought after poets with good and
informative information.
Do yourself a huge favor and ignore these people dishing out this
garbage advice while trying to make other poetry groups and
organizations look bad in the process. The reason why some of these
people are so very mad and spew this kind of nonsense is because they
have never won one single award or recognition from the organizations
they are trying to ruin the reputation of. Their work was not seen as
being good enough to merit a recognition or award in the free world so
these people create their own forums with horrible reputations for all
kinds of abuses and nonsense to be spread throughout the poetry world
like a bad virus.
They award themselves poet of the month on their very own forums and
it's absolutely laughable and they do this because nobody else would
award them poet of the month if they didn't do it themselves. If you
took the time to look into some of these names you would find case
after case of allegations against them so research the source of these
poetry articles before you listen to the words of these people.
These people logroll and review one another's books in attempt to look
popular and their book sales come from one another with little interest
from the general public.They sell to their own forum members who are
misleaded into thinking these people are prominent poets when they are
in reality laughing stalks of the art.
Don't be fooled by a snake dressed up in bunny rabbits clothing my
friends and look into the source of the poetry information you're
receiving because the garbage from so called poets out there is
rampant. Self promotion and delusions of grandure are the only things
they really know about and poetry is far from their knowledge base.
If you prefer to listen to people who name themselves poet of the month
on their own forums then please go ahead and do so but to me it stinks
and is far from legitimate. Just remember that I warned you when you
finally realize who you're reading information from.
Always take time to know the source before you get wrapped up in
someone's pretty and deceitful words. The poeple pointing fingers in
reality should be pointing to themselves and not deceiving the readers.
If it walks and talks like a poetry duck my friends then indeed it is a
duck.
