Allergies and Food Addictions – NO MORE

Would it be cruel to say that I’ve sneezed out better covers than this?

TMI made me giggle as well. Like a wee lamb. Which was odd.

TMI ::snort::

Photo definitely works. The rest . . . every element added on top was just another nail in this cover’s coffin.

The slanted “Publishing” is so . . . ridiculous, it’s not even trite.

I can see this selling as it is, if the content lives up the credentials (although doubling up the Dr. and Ph.D. might not be the best idea, and I didn’t check to see if the degrees are in a relevant field). A few subtle improvements, especially more readable title text would help.

If you’re a P.H.D, you are already a doctor. Unless you’re a P.H.D. candidate … and a Dr / P.H.D of what???? Aside from a lousy cover, I’d wager the contents aren’t all that medically sound.

Oh, the author could be a medical Dr. with a PhD in some other field. In WikiPedia editing, honorifics outside a person’s biography Education heading will (eventually) be deleted with comments like “peacockery” or “puffery”.* One would hope that, outside an author’s bio, use of honorifics like “Dr.” and “, PhD.” would lead the reader to skepticism and further research rather than a blind faith acceptance based on a name swimming in alphabet soup. In fact, an author’s name surrounded by honorifics can be viewed with cynicism, especially if their book is self-published beyond the touch of peer-review by qualified academic referees.

* WP peacock terms are not just titles like “Dr.” and honors like “, PhD” but also job titles like “Prof.” especially if the “Prof.” is not currently a tenured professor at university but a retired professor.

Ha! I bloody knew it. Checked out her smashwords and she’s a frikken peddler of crap.

Cure autism? Do some detox? Metal toxicology? No wonder she’s self publishing through smashwords, I doubt a reputable publisher would touch it.

@ Ebony

But if you fling enough crap at the wall, something’s sure to stick eventually and make you $$$!
