Mr. Pacione is back on InsaneJournal. He never lost that journal the way he did his Greatest Journal and DeadJournal. After a two year absence, Pacione vows to use that blog to keep his entries professional.
. . . but I am using this blog to keep it more professional so I am cleaning up all the older posts.
The next paragragh was a rehash of getting booted from the HWA that contained this nugget:
So with that who ever bought into the lies to get me tossed out need to take their heads out of their asses and the loser who stole my posts from the forum over there had access to the forum.
Yes, that was “more professional.” More professional than what?
He never understands that he does it to himself. Those posts were incredibly ugly that got him booted from HWA. He insulted Ellen Datlow and others and then tried to excuse himself by saying “that’s just how I am.”
I didn’t insult Datlow. I insulted Hawkes and Fullbright.
Really? And I thought your version of events was that you never did anything wrong, ever…
Phil, you’re forgetting that reality and fantasy are one and the same in Pacione’s mind.
I still have the screenshots of all of that. He did insult Datlow. He also insulted Hawkes, Fulbright, and others over what was a minor question of ethics.
He had insulted Datlow numerous times over imagined slights. He started threads with comments such as “editors are always urinating on writers”
Your constant lying about my books and projects are hurting my projects you obsessive faggot. Leave me the fuck alone already. You faceless coward, and you constantly going around libeling my personal nature is going to be the death of you asshole.
No one is lying. How about the lies you told about my books? or Mary’s books? or Karen’s? What about Bob’s?
What? Do you think God gave you special permission to lie?
Cussedness said: “…then tried to excuse himself by saying, ‘that’s just how I am.'”
Not surprising seeing as he considers racial slurs as “something that was a little off-kilter as an insult.” I once told him there was a difference between speaking your mind and mindlessly speaking, and that two should never be confused. Needless to say, he ignored my advice.
I promise to never accuse him of possessing a mind.
Again, it’s not libel if it’s true. Oh, and Houston, we have a death-threat! Sadly he didn’t specify who got that one. Do we have to share it?
He intends to paddle a canoe across the big pond to England just to intimidate you, Phi.
Well, this was way back when this fight consisted mainly of Dan Fox, Susan Talyor, Brian Keene, and Poppy. I was still trying to chill him out in those days. Warning him that nothing good would come of his behavior. But I made the mistake of writing a negative comment about his work. I told him that ‘Leviathan’s Ghost’ read as though it were originally written in another language and then sent through an online translator.
Back then there were people who seriously wondered if English was Nick’s second language and not his first. Sadly, it turned out the English was his first language.
I still wonder.
Only because “Grammy, I pooped my pants again” isn’t a language in the true sense of the word. It’s more a communication of one’s fundamental helplessness by way of rogue bodily functions.
People not previously acquainted with Pacione still ask whether English is his second language.
Thanks for your one-stop journalistic headquarters, Mr. Nail (or, if I may, Rusty), for all the breaking news. I’ve linked my humble blog to yours.
Why, thank you, sir.
Someone got a sneak preview of the cover of his upcoming book “An Eye In Shadows”
http://encyclopediadramatica.com/Image:An_eye_in_shadows_sneek_peek.jpg
That’s his darkest cover yet. ROFLMAO.
That’s hilarious. Especially considering that the vast majority of people who keep giving him a hard time are women.
Eye in Shadows isn’t his non-fiction book, but it doesn’t detract from the hilarity.
That’s not the real cover.
Are you certain, Nicky? Maybe you need to look again?
Fair’s fair. I thought it was going to be How To Fit Big Things In Your Mouth: tricks of the trade by Nickolaus Pacione…
I thought it was going to be “How I Got Locked in My Locker with Willie (and Learned to Love It).”
I know it isn’t because I designed the real cover. I have the cover but I am not going to upload it. I am not going to let a bunch of faggots coax me into loading the thing way ahead of time. So kindly fuck off. I know what you assholes are doing on the lulu.com board — trying to start a fight over there too so you can get me kicked off of there. Not happening bitch, not happening.
Nick, you are acting with incredible restraint over at lulu. No one is trying to start a fight there. You have not addressed the issues.
If you acted better, this would not be happening.
You need to loosen up and learn to laugh at yourself.
You come off as silly and ugly. That is not good for you or the anthologies.
It is not good what you fuckers are doing here, that’s why I am going to be ugly about it. You mother fuckers don’t even have a preview of the book and that isn’t even remotely the real cover. What Jenny was doing over there was starting the fight on Lulu.com to get me tossed off from there. I addressed them enough but I am not going to answer to a bunch of fucks who hate my guts. What you assholes are doing aren’t good for the anthologies, you’re hurting them more than I would ever do so.
I am going to come off ugly if you’re going to fuck over my book sales even the ones I managed to sell legitimately too. So are you going to let me make the money from them or are you going to ruin them like a bunch of assholes.
I might point out, Mr. Pacione, that if you have legitimate book sales, then by definition they aren’t “fucked over,” as you so delicately phrase it. Or, are you lying about having legitimate sales?
Here’s the way the logic works: legitimate sales = not fucked over; fucked over = no legitimate sales.
Take your time digesting that. I’ll wait.
If you produced good anthologies instead of simply throwing all the stories that come in in the books along with the kitchen sink, the quality would shine through and you would not be hassled or forced to defend something that cannot be defended.
Nicky, why don’t you just fess up that you don’t have the money to fund these anthologies when you start them? And I agree with Janrae. If you put out good anthologies, you wouldn’t have to defend them nearly so much.
