Ghostwriter Publications: Not Recommended

[Warlocker]

I've got a couple of friends who wrote some stories for Ghostwriter Publications.
They got published.
Pity they didn't get paid.
Also a pity that some readers who ordered copies of GWP novels never got them either.
Neil Jackson is the owner/publisher of GWP. Out of Weymouth in the UK.

Several forums have the info, here's one example:

Ghostwriter Publications - Absolute Write Water Cooler

GWP has been blacklisted on Preditors and Editors as 'Not Recommended'

Simon Unsworth writes about GWP, and it's worth reading the comments at the end also.

The GWP website looks good.
Just goes to show you can't judge a book by it's cover.

I posted this here in case any writers were thinking of submitting a story to GWP.
Do some research on Neil Jackson and GWP and then make your own mind up.

Surely a phone call to the Trading Standards office might stir things up nicely?

Yes you need some authority to intervene, unless they only get paid once sales figures start arriving.
