Jon is talking about Fatrick on his stream right now

 

[Boston Brand]

I'll note that like Cuck Wendigo, this guy probably actually does produce lots of words. That's why they hire him.

Now THAT is another name I should pull in the database. Knew I forgot someone. Any bets how bad his numbers are?

Pat and Cuck get work bot because they put out lots of work - plenty of authors are far more productive and put put better stuff to boot.

They are far better at kissing the right asses.

Are these his all time numbers? He's really fat at this. How accurate are they? And how much would he get per sale, assuming it didn't get swallowed up in paying back the advance?

All time print sales, ebook numbers are more of a crapshoot - Publishers loathe to give those out, though BookScan is getting better.

As for how much he would get per sale, 10 percent. So maybe $2 per book.

Without knowing anything on this subject I presume they hand out 3 book deals to anybody, expecting to lose the advance - on the off chance one makes it big?

It's been industry standard for ages... not sure personally if its a relic or not. Usually done because its enough for a trilogy or for an author to find thier strengths and an audience... half fail, but another chunk at least breaks even and goes from contract to contract turning small profits, and occasionally one makes a real profit and one REALLY hits the jackpot.

Tor for example is more or less a bunch of flotsam kept afloat by money brought in by Robert Jordan, Orson Scott Card, Brandon Sanderson, Terry Brooks, and bunch of other old white guys that the diversity hires they sign these days just can't dream of measuring up to.

Damned odd to hear someone else talking about this to an audience. Cool.

Any chance you can look up Anthony Cumia in the Nielsen Bookscan? Book is - Permanently Suspended: The Rise and Fall... and Rise Again of Radio's Most Notorious Shock Jock.

I don't know how anon you want to remain but like I really love talking publishing stuff and highlighting how shitty the industry is if you want to reach out and chat it sounds like we have a lot of similar thoughts. Thanks for watching the stream!

If it's in the database? Sure, I can promise that. Him, Chuck Wendig... any other requests?

Entirely anonymously ideally... as much as a dumpster fire as trad publishing is, I do enjoy my job, and would like to keep it.

More than happy to chat anytime though.

So, I have an early present for all of you.

Pat's Nielsen BookScan sales numbers.

Wew lad are they bad.

The Ark: 2,631
Trident's Forge: 1,087
Children of the Divide: 530
Gate Crashers: 970
Starship Repo: 526
In the Black: 231

No wonder nobody has ever seen his books in stores. With sales that bad, his publishers might as well have set his advance on fire.

231 book sales is what i'd expect from an amazon no-name self-publisher who couldn't be bothered to do anything more than tag it on social media a few times for marketing.

niche fanfiction smut writers get more engagement than this fat child.

 

[James done did it]

-$100k+ from scamming two publishers
-$100k from his fellow kid raping sci-fi writers
-$???k from defrauding american taxpayer PPP loans
-$???k from dykewife

cant help but keep drawing ja/ck/ comparisons, shit jack actually, at one point, had a moderately successful youtube channel (even today, in its dismal state I guarantee he brings in 10x as much as Richard), had one non-abandoned kid and reconciled with the one he strangled and abandoned eventually so that stroked out boomer is somehow, incredibly, a more productive and functional member of society.

Such a punchable face. Drinky looks to be feeling no pain. Three maybe four Irish coffees to start the day and constantly nipping from her flask(s) to 'ward off the cold'. It's one way to cope with being Mrs. P.S. Tomlinson.

There's only one context I know of for "ha'penny", which is "ha'penny-tuppeny" as a term to describe a situation where things are cheap and shitty. I wonder if an English visitor was describing Patrick's house or something.

He does live in a ha' hovel, so maybe.

Those book sales are not even enough to be a rounding error for an actual author. He'd do better if he wrote something like that execrable dinosaur "erotica" one sees on Amazon, "Dino Space Park After Dark" or "A Billionaire Space Dinosaur Forced Me Gay."

 

[Mr Moonface]

A new imposter account has appeared on twitter. Say hello to @proudgeekauthor

This guy co-owns a pub, is a fan of Elon Musk, and didn't abandon his daughter.

He doesn't seem like much of a political firebrand though, not sure if a level-headed take like this will sell books.

He also didn't attend Worldcon.

This faggot has relied on handouts all his life, go figure. Has he ever held consistent, paid employment?

 

[ShinyStar]

It's only fair that we compare Fatrick to his peers. I think we should know the sales for Empress Theresa by Norman Boutin and The Wogglebug's Hidden Truth Behind the History of Oz by Cynthia Hanson. Maybe throw in Reaper's Creek by Onision for good measure.

he was a 'martial arts and firearm instructor' at one point (lol).

 

[Johnny Anal Beads]

he was a 'martial arts and firearm instructor' at one point (lol).

Also a pool lifeguard, where he admits/brags (I can't tell the difference) that he failed to resuscitate one or two people, leaving them dead.

Odd duck, that Patty Tomlinson; he'll admit to failing to save a life, but won't admit that he's morbidly fat.

It hardly needs to be said, but I'm sure real lifeguards fail to save lives too, except they have a better track record than 0-2.

 

[James done did it]

If I opened my eyes to this

I'd close them and never open them again too. Pat killed those people.

Jack, someone upon whom I routinely wish death, makes Fat Rick look functional in comparison.

There are literally people dead because of how much of a failure Fat Rick is. I've known a couple lifeguards, they were typical stoner dudes, basically blasted out of their gourds on ganja every waking minute, not one of them lost a single person they were protecting. Those mothers would dive in at all costs and pull someone to shore.

Anyone hiring a morbidly obese coward like Fat Rick had no concern for life whatsoever.

 

[YMB]

Now that we officially know Fatty's abysmal sales numbers it makes me wonder if he ever considered that those retarded sales figures could potentially have been revealed and used against him in his lolsuit since he claimed in his filing that the trolls had directly hurt his sales and thus he was owed $50,000 (still not sure if he wanted 50k from each John Doe or all together) in 'damages'. Any defendant's lawyer could have requested that Pat provide his true & honest sale numbers and then argued that he was showing a steady decline and massive drops in sales with every new book before the trolls ever came along because he was too focused on Tweeting hundreds of times a day about Trump for 4 years to write good books. And then everyone would clap. I don't think Patrick thought that far ahead or even imagined that scenario. He was certain everyone, specifically Quasi, would scatter like roaches while he wiped his fat asshole with sfwa legal funds. He sure as shit didn't expect that California ruling, tho! AHAHAHAHAHA HOW'S THAT FEEL, FUCKER?!?!
