Right I'm going to say something controversial. I truly believe that Jason hates most, if not all, vegan processed food. He always says it lacks something in flavour. Problem is Paul has a yellow sticker obsession so Jason has to eat it and pretend he likes it.

I couldn't live like that.

I totally agree with you, even my other half has commented how Jason looks like every meal is inedible, but he's either afraid of Pauls reaction or he's lazy or can't cook himself.
 
Not the bleeping pigeon book 🤦‍♀️ cue Paul flouting himself as published author.. yeah anyone can pay Pegasus to do that Paul. Look at the amount of students books ‘published’ 😂😂 who the duck is going to buy that?! Apart from his YT minions. Adam will probably buy ten copies.
The self written biography too 😂😂 ‘Paul Burgess is a writer, actor and drag queen’ oh yes, that well known writer and actor 😂😂

Interesting. I know nothing about publishing. From what I have quickly read it is likely to be a vanity publisher where you have to hand over a lot of money and then only get a fraction of royalties and you have to do all the publicity etc.. Does this seem to fit with this particular publisher?

It's been a while since I worked in commercial trade publishing but I'm thinking the 'industry' is bigger than it has ever been, what with 'everyone having a book in them' :unsure: .

You are correct, you hand over the money, get very poor (if any) royalties, and you have to self-promote like crazy to get the word out. Bookshops and chains are unlikely to order from publisher such as this. Public libraries and schools are unlikely to know of the title, and are therefore unlikely to order it.

I self-publish either on the Amazon KDP platform, or via another platform that would suit PB perfectly, depending on the book subject and level of likely sales. I've got a range of puzzle books that are quite niche, and of the 21 titles in the range, 4-5 sell daily. There are a couple in the range that have never sold a copy. Leading up to Christmas, sales will increase as they are great little stocking filler titles. The beauty of KDP is it's free to publish on the platform, you have a marketplace that handle all the distribution, it's always printed on demand so if I never sell a copy, nothing has to be printed. If I sell a few copies daily, the purchaser(s) gets a brand new printed version, that hasn't been sat in a warehouse gathering dust for months. I get paid a commission, for work I did 5 years ago, so perfect for passive income. I have also published what might be described as a 'proper' book (aka, not an impulse purchase like a puzzle book), such as Paul's (!) which I publish via another platform, that means that independent book sellers, chains, libraries and universities can see details on the book, and order it from that platform. It will also be available on Amazon.

If only Paul had done the research, learned how to self-publish, maybe asked in his community and beyond, and took the focus off himself for a millisecond, he might have the book in his hand, with a reasonable commission, as opposed to a lockup full of books to market, package up, post, promote. And be several thousand poorer. Ah well!

News in!!

The long awaited Penny The Pigeon Queen now available for preorder but only through the publisher. No sign on Amazon yet.

Quick Google it seems this may be a dodgy publisher "Pegasus publishing". They will accept anything, get you to hand over a lot of money and then do nothing to publicize it. According to trust pilot and Mumsnet.

Mumsnet seems to say avoid at all costs. I can't post a link so please Google.

So very much a case of him paying for it to be published
it will be interesting to see how many of the sheep buy it and if he recoups the initial outlay
I see a major out burst about lack of support ( from the publishers ) and a tirade against his followers who haven’t bought it … when it fails miserably to make any profit 😂

He never, ever, ever takes advice. I find this leads to the downfall of many narcs.
 
He'll be hawking tit stained copies to vegan campout for years to come. Probably with Sssniffy in a feckin pidgeon suit as he conducts his very important book signings.

I knew he was going to write a book to just have a pop at that woman and her child that scared some pigeons. Ffs, no one is going to buy this! I’m guessing he’s self published?

Yep. Someone told him to stfu. He never got over it. We think Pegasus publishing is a vanity publisher where you pay a heap of money and they do f.all to publicise his book... they've already made their profit. Paul will be thinking he's so damn popular that he can promote it himself and 'this time next year Brommers we will be in Keffalonia...: deluded and a bit thick.

My husband was reading up on Pegasus last night and he said Pau will have funded all of this and get nothing back.
 
Todays live near the beginning Jason trying to talk about his sweet moment with Isis despite the difficult stuff he has going on. Paul dives in about his book release and Jason of course has to tell him how proud of him he is. Cut Jason right off. Jason’s Mum isn’t well and Paul had to jump in to talk about himself. Jason’s face said it all, he looked deeply upset.

Who ordered 15 copies of his book?? That’s £150! Paul hardly looked grateful, his face!!!
---
To top it off Jason sending his best wishes to a woman in Florida affected by Milton and Paul jumps in the screen showing what chocolate chips he’s using. I swear he does it all on purpose.
---
Hinting for money for a break away. Could tell by their faces.

Can you tell I’m watching right now 😂

Nothing like having a good poke around your ears, not washing your hands (which you never see him do) and then cooking up some slop for Sssniffy to enjoy. Dirty w ⚓'s.
