  My wife got one of those Who's Who and was a little mad at me for 'doing research' and discovering that it's a scam. Thankfully, a dinner and a movie got me out of the dog house and so did your blog. Thanks feyaia Van Pri

  I think this blog is awesome. Reason? I am soo tired of all these people trying to get over on unsuspecting people. I think that's all they do is sit at home and think of ways to con people out of hard earned money with empty promises. But when you talk to them they really can't answer any of your questions. Why? Because that's what part of the membership fee covers. Great blog. Keep up the good work.

  It is always hard hitting and easy to read. It is content which is designed to help the reader and the writer with hard questions and who to avoid. Content is great.

  Writer Beware ruthlessly lays the smack down on hundreds of writing scams, and is an invaluable resource to any burgeoning author who wants to avoid being caught out. Remember, money flows TOWARD the writer.

poor
  While well written in form and syntax, the author proves time and again that she is purely on a mission to elevate the status of her accomplishments while tearing down the accomplishments of others.
