Oh yes. Read the details at BookBurger and be horrified<\/a>. I desperately wish I could believe that this is a hoax…but I very much doubt it is.<\/p>\n

See, you can be in these people’s anthology of stories about gratitude to the Divine for things that have happened to you. All you have to do is pay them between $300 and $500 for the privilege! (Depending on when you sign up.)<\/p>\n

And <\/em>free brainwashing is (included | required)! Get this:<\/p>\n

\n

**ALL STORY SUBMITTING AUTHORS <\/a>are strongly encouraged to participate in our three month thankfulness course to help ensure that your story is coming from a place of thankfulness and presence enough to qualify for our series.**<\/p>\n

…Once you have reached a state of unconditional love & gratitude for WHATEVER it is that you believe is getting in your way, we will then work with you on sharing your personal story with our readers.<\/p>\n

The purpose of this course is to assist you in bringing whatever issue you are dealing with to a place of thankfulness, presence and love and to then be able to write your story from this perspective. If you are unable to do so even after completing the course, we reserve the right to turn down your submission.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Uh huh. …And there’s more!<\/p>\n

\n

Up to 1% of the net profit from the book sales of the book your story is published in for the lifetime of the book, PLUS, a percentage of the net profit of the entire book series.<\/p>\n

The option to include at the end of your story a biography about yourself and any service you offer, for example, other books you have published, your website, contact info, etc.<\/p>\n

Thousands of dollars worth of marketing and publicity. This series will be translated into different languages and marketed to millions of people around the world.<\/p>\n

You have the opportunity to earn money for the lifetime of the book!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Leaving aside that the business model sounds totally whacked… Never mind. Just back away slowly. Then run. Run,<\/em> do not walk.<\/p>\n
