I looked up some reviews on my publisher, Whiskey Creek Press (I should have done this before I signed the contract) and I found out a few things.
Usually the complaints are that the authors receive poor sales in return and that the publisher tends to have a lack of unresponsiveness and that their editors focus more on the romance/erotic romance stories rather than anything else...
The company still pisses me off though, as that is still no fucking excuse. They should still try to make sure that they did the best that they can since they offered to publish it... with mistakes like these, they will diminish sales...
I can't really do anything, even if I wanted them to change all of the mistakes that they've made to my book, that's going to cost me to fix them. We'll see what happens. Either way, the book will still be available for sale through Amazon and Barnes and Noble for anyone who wants to read it if you don't mind some of the errors, otherwise while I'm at work tonight, I'm going to fix the copy that I have of all the grammatical errors that I've caught so far.
Any Issues?
To whom this may concern,
I'm currently working on re-packaging my books to submit to a literary agent that will represent my work and help me sign a contract with a well-known publisher. I've been a bit apprehensive since my dealings with Whiskey Creek Press and Start Publishing, but I believe that I will be much more successful with a more renowned publisher.
My reason: I was looking more into how I can market my books more, and doing it just strictly through Amazon isn't going to cut it. Even though technology and social media are great advertising platforms, it's super difficult for a self-published author to make it on their own. I've

Stolen Art - Beware of Quilt Site
This information was shared with me courtesy of !Talentha (https://www.deviantart.com/talentha). I had the displeasure of being one of the artists that this quilt making website stole from. Luckily, they were civil with me when I emailed them and they removed my art from their page. However, this site still continues to pose a threat to other artists, both on and outside of deviantART.
If you were affected as well, then please contact them through this email:

Stolen Art
UPDATE: THEY JUST REMOVED MY ART SECONDS AGO! OMG, I'M SO HAPPY! I'M NOT SURE ABOUT THE OTHER ARTISTS, BUT I WILL KEEP THIS LIST UP UNTIL THAT SITE REMOVES ALL OF THE STOLEN ARTWORK.
I STILL HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE. I LEARNED THAT CONTACTING THEM THROUGH THEIR MAIN WEBSITE IS USELESS. BUT...
I DID FIND THEIR MAIN CUSTOMER SERVICE EMAIL (IT WAS DIFFICULT TO FIND, I THINK THEY WERE TRYING TO HIDE IT):
support@blockofgear.com
I JUST SENT THEM AN EMAIL A FEW MINUTES AGO AND I DID RECEIVE CONFIRMATION THAT THEY GOT IT, BUT NOW IT'S JUST WAITING FOR THEM TO RESPOND BACK WITH THE PROPER RESOLUTION. IF ANYONE ELSE WISHES TO SEND
