[TotallyObsessed]

[TotallyObsessed]

Hi Everyone.. does anyone here remember Wudge?:floorlaugh: :floorlaugh: :floorlaugh:

I do...why? Do tell....

 

[bogeygal]

This DYNO*MITE large print flip-style book will have colorful fonts and a special "find the spelling mistakes" section. The first 25 books sold will be accompanied by a sturdy wooden easel for your viewing pleasure!

Too funny! :floorlaugh:

 

[wonders]

I think it is SOP for all lawyers who end up on a big time case to write a book afterwards....? Or not? Maybe I am thinking of the prosecutors, such as OJ, Charles Manson, etc.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.....great question. I'm sure they have a deal cut with each other for splitting up the profits. Let's see....1/2 of $100 = Not Much

You think it will be that much? Hummmmm. LOL.
I wouldn't send monopoly money for his opinion on anything.

From the...ah hem...publisher's website:

There are three things in particular that you should know about BenBella:
1.We are a traditional house paying advances against royalties. We pay traditional big publishing house royalties for trade sales and full royalties on special sales and author sales, unless deeply discounted, and even then our royalties are better than standard on these sales. We also offer double royalties on some direct sales, which can be very lucrative if the author is well-positioned to drive traffic to our sales site. Finally, we offer a much higher than normal royalties deal for selected authors with very strong platforms (this is not self-publishing; the author does not pay us anything). The details are below in Deals We Do.
2.We have top-notch distribution through Perseus Distribution. Perseus is the largest independent distributor and is a top 20 publisher nationally. They have a strong and significant sales force in every area of distribution, including national accounts, field, mass merchandisers and clubs, special sales and gift sales. They provide strong distribution worldwide.
3.We operate in a true partnership model, providing your authors with a level of collaboration, flexibility and partnership that is rare in the publishing industry

and

Most of our deals are traditional, with standard big publisher royalties and advances in the $3K to $10K range. We have gone higher for particularly attractive projects, as high as $100K for one project in particular. We pay full royalties on author sales and we pay full royalties on special sales (at discounts up to 50%, and 15% of net for deep discount sales). We also pay double royalties on direct sales, once the quantity exceeds 500 copies.

Increasingly, we are doing entrepreneurial deals in which we are offering extremely high upside, substantially exceeding traditional royalty rates. These deals are generally made with no advance, and where the author has a significant platform and is investing significant resources in promotion of the book. We offer these rarely, but for the right author this opportunity can be very attractive. You can get more details from our Entrepreneurial Deal.

And what could he possibly have to say??? If he told the truth he'd make the justice system look like a bunch of fools. If he tells it the way it was presented in court....we've all heard it before. If he tells a different story everyone will think it is a lie. If KC had any imput we know it will be a lie.

I'm sure we will hear about it and what is in it long before it is released. I hope those TES volunteers are standing by to hear what his explanation is for harassing them all. Oh and Mr. Kronk, too, bless his heart. jmo

 

[Intermezzo]

Prior to the conclusion of representation. JB withdrew as her attorney of record when? I'm sure the deal was cut after that....cuz we all know how ethical JB is.

bbm
Notice of Withdrawal of Attorney of Record filed on February 21,2012

 

[TotallyObsessed]

Look up in social media for Da Dessert Lady's insider look at JB's book...

 

[wonders]

Isn't it ANOTHER strange coinky dink that the publisher is BenBELLA. omg how transparent is she?????????????

Holy Cow!!! I wish I was a smart as you guys are to point out that kind of stuff. Now someone smarter then me will have to find when the company opened.

 

[RR0004]

Already sent my email to the publisher. Benbella books. They advertise themselves as a non fiction publisher. Not after they release this fantasy by JB........

The truth according to JB? Gag me.

 

[TotallyObsessed]

Holy Cow!!! I wish I was a smart as you guys are to point out that kind of stuff. Now someone smarter then me will have to find when the company opened.

LOL. I looked. It's a legit company. Just small. Not one of the big publishing houses. Because they wouldn't touch JB with a 10 ft pole.

 

[RR0004]

I guess what's putting a smile on my face is knowing none of the big publishing houses wanted JB's book. lol

I see that someone is thinking about horses besides me. I'm thinking that he's going to ride that one trick pony until her legs fall off. (Picture that if you will) If FCA is getting a cut, she either feels that she owes him one or that it's the only was to make money off of her case. If she isn't getting a cut, then I would think that she'd be PO'd. I wouldn't buy the book. I'll just wait until someone on this board gets bored enough to read it and post on it. If you wait a couple of days after it's on the market then I'm sure that we could find info on it somewhere online for free.
I think that the title should have been: RED LICORICE
Now, if someone would just write a few books with the titles of:
How Twelve People Got it Wrong OR
How Many Attorney's Does it Take to Get You Off of a Murder Charge OR
That one kind of sounds like a joke. You can make up your own punch line if you like. OR
You Too Can become an Attorney in Florida (Ethics not required, heck, you don't even have to know how to spell). Sketch pad and Markers included. It even comes with a ream of paper and a box of crayons to keep your client busy. ***wink-wink*** OR
Why No One Was Held Accountable in the Death of Caylee Anthony. I just might read one of those titles.
Heck, if FCA did sign a waiver so what, we all know that the book would be a book of lies, JB admitted in court that his client was a liar. We all know that she's a liar. Please pass the whip, I'm not done beating this horse.

Love your whole post!!!!!

Holy Cow again. What store's do you think will carry the book?

 

[RR0004]

The only thing I want to read about FCA is her obituary!

Ain't that the truth!!!!!

 

[TotallyObsessed]

and according to DaDessertLadie's inside investigator (LOL - if this is truly for real) the book was co-authored by a guy named Golenbock. Wiki says, among other things, he is a sports writer? WTH?

Golenbock has also written books about collegiate athletics. Personal Fouls - The Broken Promises and Shattered Dreams of Big Money Basketball at Jim Valvano's North Carolina State revisited 1980's college basketball and focused on Jim Valvano and the NC State University basketball team. The book prompted an NCAA investigation which found that free tickets and shoes issued to players were sold for monetary gain by those players.[1] Valvano lost his position as head coach and athletic director as a result of the investigation. Original publisher Simon and Schuster canceled the book after the university protested, and the State of North Carolina threatened a lawsuit over inaccurate charges on the book's projected dust jacket; the book was subsequently released by a smaller publishing house.[2][3]

Golenbock's most recent release is a biography on Hollywood screen actor Tony Curtis (co-written with Curtis), entitled American Prince: A Memoir which was released in late 2008.
