A few months ago I wrote a glowing review of Olympia Publishers. This time, however, I would like to amend my previous statement.If you have a dream of becoming an author, DO NOT submit your work to these guys. You'll get lured in by empty promises, flashy-looking websites, and doctored reviews, only to have your dreams shattered.Since my book was published a little over a year ago, I've been left to flounder. I'm still waiting to hear from their publicity department.My book (The Terropendium) has sold out at least three times on Amazon, and sites like Gardner, W. H. Smith, and others only have one or two copies left in stock. But apparently Olympia Publishers only owe me £9 in royalties over two statements. I paid them £2,500 to have my book published (I know, I was sucked in by their cleverly written lies) and all I've made is £9! I won't even see that, though, as they'll only pay out if you make £20 or more.Needless to say, my hopes and aspirations have been thoroughly stamped on by Olympia Publishers. I still have a passion for writing, and my depression-inducing experience with this publisher has not killed that,but in future I will attempt to have my work published independently or by a reputable, legitimate publishing house.Please don't fall for the scam I fell for.
