This is my experience with Westwood publishing company. It started off good in which I publish not one but THREE books with them. I even hired their editor to make corrections as needed before the publication. They did a good job publishing the three books but that is where the good ends and the NIGHTMARE begins.

Upon their recommendation I purchased their Book Review package in which someone would read the book and write a review about it. I later found out the price was quite expensive and the person who was to read the book and give the review was from overseas, I believe the Philippines.

It has been a year since the check cleared the bank and I have not received the review. I have repeatedly asked them to either refund me the money or do the review. Neither has been accomplished. The review according to Westwood would help promote the book and would be a plus factor in marketing. And I regretfully believe them.

Secondly, I purchase the webpage package from them. They sent a copy of a webpage already published and I thought it was pretty good. After months of waiting they finally produce an excellent webpage but it would be published under authorrdaxmaurice.com. When I googled it, it would not come up and the Internet noted that it was not published. I repeatedly request them to finish the job and to publish it under author r dax maurice what was never done. I have for months tried to find my webpage but it is nowhere to be found.

There is some references to the three books that I publish with Westwood on the internet but the books are unavailable. There is no way you can purchase the books. It has been months that I have tried to eliminate this problem so my friends could order my books. It begs the question, if they made the order would they actually print it and send it? Also, my marketing scheme has been put on hold due to their negligence.

And finally they have tried to seduce me into buying a package that would promote my book. I told them I believe it was a scam because they did not fulfill the two already paid for obligations of the book review and the publishing of my webpage, how can I trust them to fulfill this new promise. I have tried communicating with them regarding the book review, the webpage, and the publishing of the website, but my request fell on deaf ears.

I also read the fine print in the contract and it said that I cannot sue them for any reason except in Florida. So if you are a distance from Florida I would recommend NOT signing the contract because it will cost you dearly in monies to go to Florida, hire an attorney, and the anguish of what I am going through. I believe they know this because they repeatedly ignore me. So if you are contemplating publishing with Westwood, good luck, but for me it has been a NIGHTMARE. My recommendation is DO NOT DO IT.
