Press Release Summary = Phoney Authors keep Phoney Publisher Afloat

Press Release Body = While awaiting recovery of my short story collection held
hostage by PublishAmerica, I tracked the remarkable ability of this vanity book mill
to not only to keep one step ahead of the law, but to treat with contempt their
contracted authors and the ever-growing mass of writers\' forums campaigning for an
investigation into their illegal practices.

Let\'s ignore for a moment the indifference shown by those public bodies paid to
protect their citizens, and examine how PublishAmerica\'s 125 new signings a day
(their latest claim) fall into the evil web spun by Willem Meiners, Larry Clopper,
Miranda Prather, Jessica Lewis and other soulless characters who make up their
anonymous and absurdly-named Author Support Team.

Should a misguided friend or spiteful enemy point a novice writer in
PublishAmerica\'s direction, a first logical step should be to undertake a simple
Google search. Such a search reveals about 614,000 results, of which probably
99.9%, other than book publication announcements, are waving bright red flags
