Okay, so this is somewhat off-topic for this site but whatever. I was looking at my Clickbank account yesterday and I stumbled onto a website that claims to sell a formula to predict lottery numbers mathematically. And it got me wondering – can that actually be done? I admit that I have a somewhat different vision of reality than most people do and I might be thinking about this from an obtuse perspective. Here is the ad for this lottery predicting program.
So here is my reasoning. Einstein once said, “God does not play dice with the universe.” Random is never truly random because all must fit the pattern of the great design. And even a dice rolls according to the immutable rules of physics, gravity and rebounding. People in authority, like a lottery commission, might take as many steps as possible to make a lottery result as random as practical but it will never be completely so because true random is a physical impossibility. Interesting.
Another quote comes to my mind, “Numbers don’t lie, liars don’t count”. The math professor might be lying about having a winning formula but absolutely quantifiable truth will be in the lotto prize pudding. Predicting ‘random’ lottery numbers is theoretically possible and there is a double money back guarantee. So the bottom line is I’ve talked myself into testing out the lotto program for myself. I’ll let you know how it turns out and your welcome to click below to test it out too.

A good author pours his/her creativity and energy into writing a book. A ‘successful’ author squanders his/her energies in successfully jumping the many agent and publishing hoops. ‘Successful’ authors have cheated readers of his/her best work. And I personally don’t consider that a success.
Self published authors are the real success, even if they never recieve much renumeration for their books. Support self published authors and thumb your nose at the book publishing industry that has shamefully let society down as they grovel for money.

Frequently Asked Questions -
My newest book needs a good publisher, do I need a literary agent? – Certainly not! You did your work in writing the book, so why should you pay leech fees to an agent?
My book requires a publisher that will pay me royalties, will you give me an author advance? Absolutely! Any publisher that takes your literary work on should demonstrate their good faith by paying something up front. An advance on the expected royalty proves the book publisher will actually produce and market the literary work.
Does this publishing house accept fiction, genre, poetry, non-fiction or romance novels? Yes.
My book requires a publisher but it also needs editing, cover art, printing and promotional material, does this publishing company provide these – at no charge? Of course! An author writes and a publisher provides the full support it’s just as simple as that.
My book needs a publisher and I’ve found a publisher for my book that meets my requirements! I love a happy ending!

Unfortunately, this post is fiction. In a perfect world – no, make that in a half-decent world, book publishing would work the way this post describes. But corrupt book publishers won’t even look at a book that a literary agent leech hasn’t got his/her money-suckers into. And corrupt book selling stores put crap on co-opted rack space (equals the prime sales areas paid for by corrupt publishing houses).
My book requires a publisher. Good luck with that. Readers need publishers to provide good books too but that doesn’t happen either.

And Literature for Everyone in B – Tween
Alice likes playing soccer and working on her go-kart with her dad. But when she moves to the suburbs, she learns from Zen, the boy down the street, that she has no hope of fitting in at her new middle school unless she starts acting more “like a girl.” At first, Alice doesn’t mind that she isn’t just like Haley and Yvette, the school’s reigning princesses. Then she realizes that being different can set you apart…and being friends with someone like Zen can set you way apart. Why does being yourself have to be so complicated?
From Alice to Zen and Everyone in Between
By Elizabeth Atkinson
‘Timeless story for Tweens,’ says one literature reviewer… “From Alice to Zen will capture the heart of any young teen-ager. It is very well written but still appropriate to their reading level. A marvelous holiday or birthday present. A gift that they will enjoy and probably share with their friends. Delightful addition to the tween genre.”
‘Funny, Totally Delightful Tween Novel’, gushes another reviewer… “As a parent it is really difficult these days to find something age appropriate for middle schoolers. FROM ALICE TO ZEN is absolutely wonderful and will appeal to tweens and adults alike! The main characters (especially Zen) are so likable and relatable. The story is funny,absorbing and truly uplifting — I highly recommend it to anyone between 9 and 12 years old.”
