Ugh, mermaid publishers strikes again. Just so ya know, this publishing company is very much on our black list for spamming, for bloating memberships with spam accounts, and being obnoxious. GO AWAY, MERMAID!

I've got some poetry for their chapbook:

Spammers themselves spammed
Our site flagged for viruses
Head void save for poo

Went digging for reviews because I had no idea they were scummy, and their website got flagged for malware by my browser guard! Sheesh. Maybe they oughta publish an IT professional first.

OMG, laugh my arse off! Last time I looked into their site, malware was not an issue, so yeah, I'm guessing they irritated the wrong folks and got owned. Hehe.
