In 2004 I published a book "Evil Fire Made To Burn" with Dandelion, Carol Adler. I have a special web site where readers could submit questions and comments. I had over 1200 individual responses, yet Carol only reported 24 book sales. I even saw someone reading my book on a vacation to Cambodia! When I questioned Carol about this she seemed very upset that I had discovered her illegal business plans and told me she would 1)not promote my book and 2)would not cancel my contract. This amounted to killing my work and preventing another "honest" publisher from taking it.
I noted this on my website and received dozens of similar complaints from other Dandelion authors. No doubt this woman is sleezy and dishonest and has hurt many many authors, taking their work and their money.
I eventually got my work copyright back and published the book myself, instantly getting thousands (114,000 to date) new readers of my manuscript. It was even bought for a screenplay... all because I quit doing business with this horrible person.
Other authors please beware and look closely at the kind of person you are doing business with. "By deception she doeth business."

This is way out of line.....

Gary Vey, or rather as he likes to be known, Dan Eden, has gone out of his way to allude to Carol as being a thief or con artist. She is neither. I am one of her authors. I also publish through a different publisher with selected works. She has never threatened to sue me, or in any way cause me any harm legally. Is she still my publisher? You bet. I do not know all the particulars about the situation with Vey, but, I do know Carol Adler. She has been up front with me since I first published with her.
If Gary Vey/Dan Eden sold 114 thousand copies of his book after seperating from Dandelion, good for him. I am sure Carol wishes him luck in his ventures. But to call her names, impune her character, and outright libel her (hey, the name calling is in print, and is unsubstantiated) is in effect, a criminal act. As far as the book being sold to be put into a screenplay? I am a tad bit dubious about that, I am in the screenplay and film business, as well as being an author.
Sometimes, the egg stealing dog is the one who yaps the loudest. Before anyone reading Vey/Eden's rippoff report takes any of it to heart, you better look at the entire situation. So guy, ya made some bold negative claims about Carol. Put up some proof, rather than just making caustic remarks. Oh yeah, I know Carol personally, know her living situation personally, and she has not grown fat and rich off her authors. She is working for a living just like everyone else out here in the real world. She is the real deal, and is also honest. Tuklo Nashoba
