Praise Report!

PRAISE REPORT:
To those who are supporting my thunderclap campaign and to those who said “you cant do anything about it”….

With the help of my fans and friends I have done something about the fact that a 5 million dollar publishing company decided to use the same title of my novel Rise of the Magi, for their new comic book.

What have we done?

WE HAVE BEAT THEM OUT ON SEO!!!!

With no marketing money at all, Lamplight Media a small publishing house has re-gained the top link on google over a company that has turned their comics into major movies and has been around since I was a teen!

To those who are supporting me I want to say thank you, and to those who said “you cant do anything about it” I want you to see that just because a company is bigger and has the law on their side doesnt mean you cant do anything at all. I (and all my friends and fans) have made it so that when someone googles the name of their product “Rise of the Magi” they will first be exposed to my novel. We have turned this around into something positive and hopefully will take advantage of the confusion caused and get the redemption message of my novel into more hands.

Its not over, this thunderclap campaign is not done and has 2 weeks left. If you havent supported it please go there now and add your support! https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/12622-rise-of-the-magi-book-blast?locale=en

Trademarks, Copyrights, and Book Titles (Oh my!) <– Would love to hear what you think…

Some of you that know me may know that I have started a social media campaign recently to reclaim the SEO I had on my first novel until a major publisher use the title for their comic book with the same on free comic book day. See reference if you have no clue what I am talking about: Reference .  I want to discuss this with others of you in the Publishing industry and out. Please visit that link and read about my story. Let me know if you think a person should be able to trademark their book title.  Also, I believe that just because a thing is legal it doesn’t make it right.

Let’s review some things that are technically legal in the state of SC where I live:

When approaching a four way or blind intersection in a non-horse driven vehicle you must stop 100 ft from the intersection and discharge a firearm into the air to warn horse traffic.

Dance halls may not operate on Sundays.

It is perfectly legal to beat your wife on the court house steps on Sundays.

There are a few others I wont mention about inter-personal relations with someone of the opposite gender.

Lets look at a few California laws:

In San Jose and Sunnyvale it is illegal for grocery stores to provide plastic bags.

You may only throw a frisbee at the beach in Los Angeles County, CA with the lifeguard’s permission.

Women may not drive in a house coat.

Well, since the law makers cant really be relied on, lets talk about the ethics of the matter. Am I merely doing what George Lucas is so frequently accused of or do I have a valid reason to have some professional and emotional attachment to my book title? Image

Here is my review:

I picked George to write within the world of Soterion because he is simply a better writer than I am. With his degree in History he is better able to convey the history and culture of Soterion.

This story is about the struggle and duality of man.

Leevant’s story in this novel can be summed up in Romans 7:15-25

v15 For I don’t understand what I am doing. For I do not do what I want – instead, I do what I hate. 16 But if I do what I don’t want, I agree that the law is good. 17 But now it is no longer me doing it, but sin that lives in me. 18 For I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh. For I want to do the good, but I cannot do it. 19 For I do not do the good I want, but I do the very evil I do not want! 20 Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer me doing it but sin that lives in me.

21 So, I find the law that when I want to do good, evil is present with me. 22 For I delight in the law of God in my inner being. 23 But I see a different law in my members waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that is in my members. 24 Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? 25 Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

But this is a story of redemption as most sotries written in Soterion which is the Greek word for salvation.

If you root for the under dog, this novel is for you.
