Noemi is like a bad taste...just wont go away!

Hello my beauties,
I am sitting here in a cafe waiting for the time to come for me to go to my micro biology class and decided to check my email. Look what I found! [And I quote]

"Noemi is Essence and has a book with Loose id today, did you know that? She has not gone away and has books coming with Siren press too! She has not gone underground, she is still around and not paying people. She is rediculous!!! These companys know who she is but don't care. I heard this info last year after she closed and cheated the authors. I hope you can get her!!!"

Are you kidding me? Why would you know that this person has decieved people, stolen from people and have her around? There have been so many authors tring to get a hold of her, as well as myself, and it was like she was gone now she's popping up as a different person. I do not understand. Maybe she's trying to make money to pay off the authors but that would be too much of a stand up thing of Noemi to do. I am not all together heartless, mind you. A person who makes a mistake and shows genuine remorse for said mistake, deserves a second chance, but this woman has shown no remorse what so ever. Every email that has gone to her that I have known about has gone unanswered, every try to get payment from her has gone unanswered. She keeps pretending to remove author works from her website and stop their sales but she lies because the books left on her site at the moment can still be bought.

How do you know that a person such as this, who has burnt so many people and has stolen from so many, won't do the same to you? And how can you as a business take their work without thinking of the consequences. Dont get me wrong, I have nothing against Loose Id or Sirens because I've heard nothing but good about these two publishers but come on guys, open your eyes! She has managed to bury herself and soon, she will do the same for you because I don't know of any author who will willingly be in the same place with that woman.

Anyways, I will be doing a little more digging to see what I can find out about all this and as soon as I do, I'll pass it on to you.

Highly Annoyed
WD

Authors, cover your butts.

Especially with the IRS. File a 3949A againt OMP. You don't have to know the amount that you have lost. It say's "If the amount is known".
Don't let Noemi's shoddy business practices bring you down. I talked with a man at the IRS, and he said the 3949A is the correct form.
YES, it's a fraud form, WE ALL know Noemi has been fraudulent in her business.
Take a copy to keep for your records before mailing it off. That way you have proof, if the IRS comes knocking on your door, that you filed a fraud case against them.

Although I'm not published with Siren's and Loose id, I love them. And I sincerely hope they do not lose good authors, because the authors don't want to be in the same house as Noemi.
