Hat tip: Janrae
Notice that the text remains the same, although Samantha Bradie’s author name and picture have been replaced with Elle Beth.

Also, notice the new “authors” listed, with no information other than their names. This makes me wonder whether more than a handful of the authors are real. We know Skylynn and Zoey are both Tabetha. We know Cindy has shown up several times on Janrae’s blog, to rage about various things. “Jennifer King” is now “Jennifer Latas,” no longer using her maiden name. “Julieanne” and “Angel” are new. Do they exist? The changing cast of characters is enough to make my head spin.
SCORE!
That’s great detective work. Anna Lovelace’s picture btw is stolen from a modeling shot of another woman. She’s Tabetha.
I took a look at Carlie Rose’s work and found it was even shoddier than Tabetha’s.
Don’t forget Anna Lovelace. That’s another Tabby alt.
Here’s the authors page from PF’s blogspot.

My favorite is where Tabetha has “books” that she wrote in collaboration with one of her alts, or where her alts are collaborating with each other. And she doesn’t think anybody knows? Hilarious!
This chick needs meds. Fast.
The new one, Elle Beth joined FB 12 and 13 hours ago.

She just make’s ’em up as she goes, doesn’t she?
That’s a David Boyer tactic, except that he invented phony new publishers instead of phony authors for his fake company.
I’m curious about Eris Kelli. Her bio is readily available online, yet PF only shows her picture with no bio. She announced on Nov. 4, 2012, on her FB, that Mystic Press picked up her Piper LeVine series. I thought Mystic had morphed into Phoenix Fire months before November. She allegedly began working for Great Minds Think Aloud Publishing some time last year (writer?, staff?, both?), and it (not Mystic or PF) published the first book in her Piper series earlier this month. “Zoey Sweete” does show up on her f-list. It’s rather confusing, given the timeline.
A lot of Tabetha’s “authors” and “staff” seem to be inbred. Most of her alts are authors, and she uses family as her “staff.” It was her co-owner’s mother that she blamed for being the mysterious submissions editor that used Tabetha’s business email to offer Thea a contract without ever reading her book. Which is bullshit. She needed a patsy and mom-in-law was handy.
She might have crossed over to a new tactic, though, as one of her new “authors” bears a strange and striking resemblence to her fiance and co-owner. Can’t prove it, but it wouldn’t surprise me a bit.
It’s hilarious how many times the Anna Lovelace avatar shows up on Tineye.
Lindsay is definitely in bed with the devil. She has posted an interview with Tabs as Zoey Sweete and written a Valley Girl style rah rah rah for the work and the person.
I got a good belly laugh from Tabetha’s assertion that she swiped character names from the dancers at a male strip club.
I’m sure those
strippersdancers are ever so flattered.LOL. Yes, a bunch of us were laughing about it on Skype. that and her bad bad prose. Draven is both a Dutch word and an established Scottish name.
