Review Time
My experience with the publishing agency was far from what was promised. The website suggested a partnership with transparency, professional editing, and personalized support, but the reality was quite different. Instead of receiving the promised services, I was met with continuous requests for additional payments, totaling nearly $100,000. I later discovered that the representatives were not based in the location advertised, which added to my confusion and frustration. I regret ever providing positive feedback, as what I thought was a professional relationship turned out to be emotionally taxing and financially damaging. The promised services never materialized as expected, leading to repeated calls for more payments instead. I advise anyone considering this agency to be extremely cautious, especially if they are offered emotional reassurances or future opportunities contingent on more financial contributions. Unfortunately, the only thing that moved quickly was my money, and not in my favor.
A Costly Publishing Experience Initially, I was drawn to a certain publishing agency that promised many authors the dream of transparency, collaboration, professional editing, tailored marketing, global visibility, bookstore placement, film outreach, and a dedicated team focused on the success of my literary journey. The language on their website painted a picture of a comprehensive publishing and promotional campaign: strategic marketing, book-to-screen opportunities, professional editing, and personalized author support. I was sold on the idea of a long-term partnership and a shared vision for my work's future. However, my experience revealed a stark contrast to the promises made online and in our discussions. In my view, this agency functioned more as a relentless push for additional payments than a genuine publishing service. Each conversation seemed to unveil a new “opportunity,” “upgrade,” or “urgent investment,” which ultimately cost me close to $100,000 USD. I later discovered that the people I was dealing with were not based in the United States as claimed, and I grew suspicious about the authenticity of their names, leading to increased confusion and distress about my collaboration. I regret ever providing positive feedback in the past. What I believed to be a professional relationship, even occasionally personal, turned out to be emotionally manipulative and financially disastrous. The services promised — editing, marketing, consultations, deliverables — did not come to fruition as outlined. Instead, I faced repeated calls asking for further payments for additional commitments. I advise potential clients to approach with extreme caution, especially if they are offered personal attention, emotional reassurances, or ongoing promises tied to new financial contributions. If enthusiasm and charm could be packaged as products, they would surely be bestsellers — but regrettably, the actual services were not delivered. In summary, the only thing that seemed to change rapidly was my financial situation — and not in my favor. P.S. — A Note on Ethics

“Treat others as you wish to be treated.”
This is a universal principle and is particularly significant in many faiths. I have come to realize that money earned through unfulfilled promises and broken commitments is considered haram — forbidden — and lacks blessings. Throughout my dealings, I interacted with individuals who went by names like Peter Wilburt, Ronald Grayson, and Ethan Williams (later known to me as Zaeem). While I cannot confirm the validity of these names, they were the identities presented during our business interactions. I paid every invoice on time and upheld every agreement. I trusted the representatives of this agency with my work, my campaigns, and my aspirations. Yet, many of the services I paid for were either not delivered as promised or remain incomplete. I was led to believe that the agency was not operating from Los Angeles as advertised, but from another country, which compounded my confusion and anxiety regarding the clarity of our communication. If the situation were reversed — if I had received money and delivered little or nothing in return — would that be deemed fair? Honest? Just? This is my personal experience and perspective.
Others might label it more harshly. In many traditions, including Islam, betraying trust is seen as one of the gravest injustices. 💔🕌⚖️
I strongly advise against engaging with this agency. I've been trying to obtain an Accounting & Royalties Invoice since my book was published, but I've received nothing. Despite my efforts to market my book, I have not seen any earnings. When I reached out for assistance, I was met with unhelpful responses. A representative even made inappropriate remarks during a call, which is completely unprofessional. I feel deceived and believe I have been scammed. If anyone else has faced similar issues, I would like to hear from you. This has been an incredibly painful experience, and I regret trusting this agency.
