Patrick Sean Tomlinson / @stealthygeek / "Torque Wheeler" / @RealAutomanic / Kempesh / Padawan v2.5 - "Conservative" sci-fi author with TDS, armed "drunk with anger management issues" and terminated parental rights, actual tough guy, obese, paid Quasi, paid thousands to be repeatedly unbanned from Twitter

Can you imagine if Fatrick spends the money to recover his data because he thinks text messages from stalker childs will be used in court?
Oh he absolutely is.
If I'm a child can I still be tried as an adult?
You know when the FBI arrests me for the felony of calling a man fat on the internet.
 
The frustrating think about Ogenchegwe Ekpeki is, as an author and a person, he's a decent guy and has some talent

I've enjoyed some of your book recommendations that you've posted in other threads, but I have no idea why everyone in the speculative fiction world are bending over backwards trying to pretend that this charlatan has any fucking talent.

You can find the rest of this story, and other examples of his shitty writing here.

Ekpeki can't fucking write. It baffles me when other people can't see this fact. People on the other forums looked into his past and he actually tried to get a start as a Nigerian rapper but realized that the retards in the sci-fi fiction world were an easier grift. His only credential is a 'Writer of the Year' award from some Nigerian law school. The award looks like it was written on a coconut:

He also does all his writing on his phone.
 
Just curious, does anyone remember the first time Fatrick Criscoson told folks to "enjoy prison" or "wait for the knock"? I've only been following the Lard Golem for about a year now but I get the impression he's been saying it for about 5 years at least.
Oh he used to be much more varied and witty with his retorts way back. It wasn't always just "prison awaits." He even bragged about sending photos over his erect penis to them but of course he doesn't mention that anymore now he's trying to craft the CYBERSTALKER TERRORISTS WANT ME DEAD OVER A NORM JOKE narrative and gain some support.
Over time, he's been grinded down by L after L so now he just has to soothe himself with "any day now, the FBI will arrest them all and lock them away for the rest of their lives " which is a totally sane thought by the way Patrick and definitely or a schizo delusion.
 
The frustrating think about Ogenchegwe Ekpeki is, as an author and a person, he's a decent guy and has some talent - but some of the worst people in SFWA (Hi Jason Sanford) are clearly trying to sink thier claws into him. Or at least grift off of him.
Okay I can see feeling defensive of Ooga Booga because people attack him with racist insults (his nickname being the mildest of those) and that doesn’t sit right with many, but I am really struggling with your description of him as decent and somewhat talented.

To me, judging from his social media and videos, he’s personally horrible: A woke-poisoned, grifting, self-pitying, and proudly lazy man. Professionally, I can’t evaluate his editing because he worked with two co-editors but his writing is unspeakable. Pat-level bad.

What are you basing your opinion on?

I really liked his short story O2 Arena. As an anthology editor, he does have a knack for finding unusual stories.

And from what I have seen of his social interactions, he occasionally surprises me - he is shockingly a vocal defender of Baen and Baen authors, even when his SFWA minders tell him otherwise.

In an industry filled with pricks, it's a nice surprise to find someone with some decency and a backbone.

Mind you, enjoying some of his work is a far cry from thinking he deserves to be exalted as the genre's future. But there's some talent there and he's shown when the chips are down he is willing to disobey his SFWA handlers.

He does have a spark of genuine ability... which I think is why SFWA glommed onto him so hard. You have any idea how many worthless black and African authors they have backed to the hilt that don't even have even just a spark?

Short version? He's not Mike Resnick in terms of talent, but in terms of personality and ethics, he's leagues better than 80 percent of SFWA.

The dude is a common grifter, maybe a notch or two above a 419 scammer at best.

Just like he has to soothe himself with the notion that he's a "stud" by grunting on top of Nikki for 30 seconds every six months and not that she's satisfied by a never-ending parade of negroes.
