Questions for Ingram Content; and some other thoughts

Someone told me a long time ago, anything that requires an initial investment is a scam. I’m not going to say the self-publishing book business is a scam, but..

My question for Ingram Content is this; How can I obtain a detailed-in depth copy of the sales report for my books? I’m an author, I’ve written three books now, and two are published. My books are print on demand through Ingram Content. If someone purchases my book, Ingram prints it and ships it. Ingram in turn, forwards their sales report to my publishing company who pays me a portion of the sale.

To be honest, it was a little upsetting to see sales showing up in 2022 that I would not be getting paid for because according to my publisher, those sales are actually old. Apparently, Amazon purchased a bunch of books in 2021, and I was paid for that sale. So all these new sales that are showing up are actually redistribution sales from Amazon’s original order.

If I can’t get a detailed sales report from my publishing company, then I should be able to get one from Ingram since all sales go through you (Ingram Content).

This is the business end self-publishing, there’s money involved, and when money is involved, you can never be too meticulous. As the author of these books, I think it’s only right for me to have at my fingertips, a complete and detailed report of sales because in a way, self-publishing is like going into business for yourself.

How would you feel if you opened a business and you didn’t have access to a specific version of your sales?

Enough about that, I hope someone from Ingram sees this post and decides to call me because I think I’ve called every number they have listed.

Flippin’ it

Without a doubt people change, but I must say, I find a lot of joy in understanding people, their personalities, and how they act in groups versus rolling solo. There’s a new kind of man out now, I call him Flipper. Flipper like to reverse things, or he likes flipping things. He’s quick. Watch out!

Flipper belongs to a group of middle aged men who at heart, are scared and cowardly, but you wouldn’t know this on the surface.

Flipper feels a little entitled, he thinks he can do whatever he wants, he acts like he’s the only person in the world and no one else exists, he’s fake, and his antics are childish.

His specialty is making good people look bad, and he’s exceptional at making a good calm person seem like an aggressor.

For example, Flipper walks his dog around the neighborhood, and he lets his dog shit and piss on everyone’s lawn. Never his own lawn though, only yours. One day, as Flipper is going through his usual routine, Mr. Goodman is sitting in his car watching him.

After his dog squats and Flipper begins to walk away, Mr. Goodman, cool and calm, gets out of his car and says, “Excuse me Sir, if your dog shit on that lawn, you’re obligated to pick it up.”

And that was all Flipper needed to hear. He’s huffing and puffing, walking in circles, and spinning out of control. He was extremely upset because someone finally caught up with him and called him out.

Instead of doing the right thing and carrying on, Flipper decides to pull his cell phone out of his pocket, and take pictures of the Mr. Goodman’s car, the car’s license plate, and even Mr. Goodman himself.

When Mr. Goodman asked Flipper why he was taking pictures Flipper said, “Because I don’t know what you’re going to do!”

Mr. Goodman: “I’m not going to do anything. All I’m saying is that if your dog shit on that lawn you should be considerate enough to pick it up.”

Flipper carried on while he was walking away and eventually he called the cops on Mr. Goodman. Of course Mr. Good man didn’t get in trouble, but this is how Flippers flip the script on a situation.

They’ll attack you and call you the agressor.

They’ll lie and call you a liar.

They hate everyone with different skin color, but they’ll call you a racist.

Flippers, they’re everywhere. Watch out.

Nooz Now

September 23, 2022 Edition

🎆I knew the 4-year anniversary for N.B. was coming up soon, but I wasn’t sure of the exact date. I’ve been celebrating the entire month of September, but today I received the congratulations notice from WordPress. So, there you go! September 23rd is our official anniversary date.

🆒Yesterday, was the first day of fall, and to be honest, you could feel a change in the atmosphere since at least a week ago here on the eastern side of the U.S. That heavy humid summer air finally broke and gave way for a much cooler and breezy feel. No complaints here! I welcome the Fall season with open arms.

♎Happy birthday to all the Libras. I used to say “happy birthday season,” but that phrase was overused and played out so fast. Now, I just say happy birthday, and it’s just as good. The sun entered Libra yesterday, and currently, it’s on the 1st degree. Libra is a cardinal air sign, and it’s the seventh sign of our zodiac, which means naturally, Libra is home in the 7th House.

Libra is widely known for its symbol, the Scales. The Scales symbolize balance and harmony. Venus, the Goddess of love and beauty is the ruling planet. 6 and 9 are lucky numbers for Libras, and Friday is their lucky day.

Popular Libras: Sean Connery, Jesse James, Cardi B, Rocky Marciano, Sophia Loren, Racquel Welch, Arnold Palmer, Will Smith, Bruce Springsteen, and Usher.

🏈It’s only the 4th week of the 2022 college football season, but this weekend is important. First, we have the battle between two undefeated teams; (5)Clemson is traveling to (21)Wake Forest. You see the rankings there, and both teams are 3-0.

Next, 2-1 Florida will visit 3-0 Tennessee. Florida comes into this game ranked 20th, and Tennessee at number 11, and it’s obviously important for both teams to win this. The Volunteers would like to head into week five with four wins, and a win against the Gators will be quite impressive, but for Florida, it’s a must win. It’s hard to come back from a 2-2 start.

And finally, the Badgers are travelling to Ohio to play the undefeated Buckeyes. Wisconsin is 2-1, and Ohio State is 3-0 and ranked 3rd in the country. It’s a similar situation between these two Big Ten teams like the one we just talked about with Florida and Tennessee. Ohio State wants to continue winning, but Wisconsin needs a win to stay afloat in the conference.

This will be one of those weekends in college football that we’ll look back at six weeks from now and say, “Week 4 was pivotal.” It’s a make or break week and several teams are at the crossroad.

🌘 Our beautiful satellite, the Moon, is lit at 5% tonight. It’s a waning crescent, and in two more days on the night of the 25th, we will have a brand-new moon in Virgo! You couldn’t ask for a better way to start the Fall. With new moon in the sign associated with wheat and the harvest, we’re right in sync!

📗For those who weren’t aware, Smorgasbord 3 Prophecy and Poverty is complete. This is my third complete manuscript, and I’m still shopping for a publisher. I truly enjoyed writing this one, it’s 60,000 words, and by far, it was the most involving in terms of research. I will keep you in the loop with that, and if you haven’t picked up Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories, or Smorgasbord 2 Catch Up and Relish, then please do. Both are available in paperback and e-book form.

🌎You’re going to love this. Lets go back to 2020. The American citizens were getting impatient during the Pandemic Lockdowns. Our economy was taking a hit as people were out of work, and small business owners were losing something they spent their entire lives building. The people had enough and took to the streets to protest. We were winning. People from all races and backgrounds were uniting as Americans and exposing the government overreach.

Then, all of a sudden in May, a man named George Floyd gets murdered by 3 police officers. Violence, rioting, and crime plagued the United States for almost the next seven months. Supposedly, that murder took place in Minneapolis, and I say supposedly because a lot of people expressed their opinion that George Floyd was never murdered. It was said, that that murder was a staged event perpetrated by the powers that be to regain control.

A lot of people will say bullshit, but for one, we were a nation that was finally coming together. We finally put aside our differences, united, and took aim at what our government was doing to us. United we stand, divided we fall, and we know the powers that be don’t want a unified America.

Well, two days ago, I watching the music video for Drop The World, a hip hop song by Lil Wayne and Eminem. I saw the video a thousand times. If you haven’t seen the video, there’s what looks a riot going on. A city is in shambles as people are running around frantically. There’s fire and chaos. People are looting and rioting as Bird Man looks down on the city from a safe spot high above the action. Anyway, I notice for the first time two days ago, while Lil Wayne is rapping in the street, the number 621 is displayed behind him. It’s real big too, you can’t miss it.

After doing my own research because I had a feeling, I discovered 621 is the area code for Minneapolis. That song came out in 2009. That was 11 years before the George Floyd riots began in Minneapolis.

So, if you don’t think George Floyd was used in some way to kick start a riot, on purpose, for the purpose of progressing an agenda by an establishment who brings order out of chaos, you might want to reconsider. It’s foreshadowing and predictive programming.

In the song, Lil Wayne said, “I know what they don’t want to tell you. I hope you’re heaven sent and you’re hell proof.

Aright, that about does it for this session of Nooz Now. Thanks for visiting, thanks for reading, and don’t forget to follow us!

As Lil Wayne would say, I’m gonna hop up in my spaceship and leave earth mother fucker! I’m gone!

The 2+2=5 People

When I first heard Alex Jones talking about this I thought it was funny. Seriously, I used to laugh, and I think it was because I was taking it literally.

Just recently, I finally understood. It doesn’t have anything to do with math. The “2+2=5 People” are the people who believe non-truths even though they know they’re not true.

And not only do they go along with and believe lies, but they’ll expect you to do the same.

That, in and of itself is funny, because it doesn’t make sense to normal people. Why would someone say something was true if it wasn’t?

That’s something you’re going to have to ask the person when you cross that bridge, but I’ll give you my opinion when it comes to money.

Usually, big companies that generate tons of revenue and employee tons of people, public or private sector, sold out at the top.

The people who head such business ventures already made agreements and sign contracts way before they employed people. Everything comes from the top down. If you get handed something to read and sign and it doesn’t make sense, isn’t true, or is against what you believe, well, what that basically says is they don’t care if it doesn’t make sense, isn’t true, or is against what you believe.

You sign it and move on if you want to keep your job and continue making money just like the “Head” did before he employed you.

And, there it is.

You just made $90,000 last year, congratulations! Do you like your job? Yes! Do you want to continue making that money and more soon? Hell Yeah!

If you add 2 and 2 does it equal 5?

No it equals 4.

Do you want to continue making that money?

He’ll yeah!

2+2 equals 5 then, right?

Oh he’ll yeah!

Suffocating Anxiety; Break Free

This is important, well, I think it is. When it comes to oxygen and breathing, I’m dead serious. Now, there can be many reasons for why we feel anxious or short of breath, but specifically, I’m addressing relationship suffocation.

When I say relationship, it isn’t necessarily referring to our boyfriends/girlfriends, or our husbands and wives. It can be, but a relationship can be any acquaintance, friend, or coworker we talk to and see daily or once in a while.

Just two days ago, there was a man I knew who was in a bad mood. He was having a bad day for whatever reason, and instead of figuring his problem out for himself by himself, he chose to be testy with me.

We’ve all been in that situation, and it’s not right. Not every day is going to be magnificent, some days are going to suck, and each one of us, individually, needs to realize when there’s an issue and do the best we can to work towards an outcome that promotes positive interaction again.

In other words, instead of taking your problems out on innocent people, go address the issues and people who are upsetting you.

A while ago, and I don’t talk about this much, but on several occasions, I experienced an immediate cutoff of oxygen. I’m not talking about a little anxiety where it’s hard to breath; this felt like someone snuck up behind me and put a plastic bag over my face. This was not a gradual reduction of oxygen, but rather, an immediate cutoff!

That was enough for me. I needed to get to the bottom of that issue and make sure it never happened again.

When it comes to relationships, as we’ve described, an open conversation is required if they’re responsible for your suffocating. After you work out everything with that person, you must:

Set Boundaries; be firm and don’t give an inch.

Take Back Your Privacy

Express Yourself; if someone else’s behavior is affecting you let them know.

Strive for Independence; not having to rely on people frees you from their control.

Be a Leader

Cut Off General Statements: If some say’s this sucks, don’t agree if you feel differently. It’s okay to have an opinion.

Nurture Yourself and Enjoy Your Time Alone

Take Time To Do Nothing

The most important thing is for you to tell yourself;

“I’m a person to!”

“I’m a human being and I have needs.”

“I deserve to be happy.”

We are not mind readers, you have to speak up if you have concerns, feel violated, or have been treated in a way you didn’t deserve. Start putting yourself first, and start making yourself and your life a priority.

People who come off as aggressive, loud, and obnoxious, are that way for a reason. Usually it’s because they’re afraid or insecure about something. When people are afraid they try to control, and it’s their controlling behavior that’s causing your suffocation because think about it..

If someone is controlling they’re overreaching, intrusive, and could care less about your boundaries, your privacy, and your opinions. Until these people resolve their personal issues, they’re always in some way going to be a drain on you, your life, and your energy.

Stand tall my friends.

Too Much Deception For Me

Yesterday, I was asked about my opinions concerning the war in the Ukraine, and I had to be honest. I tuned out a long time ago. There was actually a good story shaping up in the Ukraine, and I was on it from the beginning.

Remember when..

Volodymyr Zelenskiy was accusing former President Petro Poroshenko of running away from charges that I think involved treason, and Poroshenko was accusing new President, Zelenskiy, of silencing political opposition?

That’s what I was following, Ukraine was a nation divided, and things were getting interesting. And in all fairness, treason and silencing political opposition goes on all the time here in the United States, but we don’t push the issue far enough to divide the country into civil war or starting a new government.

Anyway, all of a sudden, Russia was on Ukraine’s border threatening to invade.

“Wow, how convenient was that,” I said to myself. “I guess the people of Ukraine are going to put their problems aside and unite to defend their country. What else can they do?”

That’s when I tuned out of the Ukraine/Russian situation. Again, this another situation the United States should not be involved in, and for the life of me, I can’t understand why American citizens are being forced to show support for the Ukraine.

I’ll tune back in when Russia leaves and the regularly scheduled show resumes.

BY THE WAY:

Purification

As the weather breaks,
and the sickle takes,
Let's see what this harvest makes.

Under pressure but alert as my body aches,
I'm up late and stay awake to catch these dirty snakes.

I have stake in the game, 
I put a stake in my claim,
I put nine in a frame,
And said no, I'm not the same.

I was built for the one, but I run the four-hunnit',
My life was never over, I just had to go and hunt it.
Still, I'm not quite there, but I'm looking at the summit,
And I'm not stopping-if the world ends and the stocks plummet;

Oh well. 

When it was hard to breath, I was given a life savor,
A life that's saved lives right to return the favor.
Thank you. 

Wax on wax off with the moons' phases,
There's a flow to keep when the sky changes.
Old Secrets-they survive on through the ages,
I treat my past like a scrap book and turn the pages.

Into this harvest I'll be grim like reaper,
My inner sun shines as the planets say to keep her. 

I guess it's time for me tighten up my belt,
Gods activating asteroids and Hera made her presence felt.
Her diadem shines as I watch the iron melt,
And the owl sees my card while I fold on the hand that's dealt. 

I'm excited man,
There's lead in the frying pan. 
It's God's plan.
Bear witness..

As the weather gets cold,
Behold,
There's no limit for the heat old lions hold.
Originality breaks the mold.  

Let us reap!

Let us keep,
Our harvest and pursue transformation,
Through the darkness of February,
The month of Purification.
















 





















Illegal Immigration is Illegal

Illegal Immigration is Illegal. There isn’t really much to say here. America is not responsible for taking care of the world, and we’re under no obligation to take care of anyone but American citizens.

Any man, child, woman, or family, entering the United States MUST enter through a port of entry. If they don’t enter through a port of entry and register, then they are illegal.

Illegal immigration is not only unsafe for illegals, but unsafe for American citizens as well.

There’s a problem in this country with illegal immigration, and there has been for years. What we as normal citizens see is the argument.

One side argues that it is our duty to take in families of people from other countries, and it doesn’t matter if they’re illegal. The other side argues that they should have to go through a port of entry, and that there’s nothing wrong with immigration-as long as it’s done legally.

What most citizens don’t see is that when you break it down, this human trafficking. There’s a small group of American citizens who claim to care about people, but the truth is that all they care about is lining their pockets.

Groups of illegal citizens are allowed to enter the country and they’re transported to “sanctuary cities” where they’re “safe” and welcomed with open arms.

The small group, has in advance, applied for and received millions of dollars from the government to open preschool and after school care programs where they become the administrators. This has been going on since Bush’s No Child Left Behind Act. The people who stand there with open arms are happy and excited because they’re about to make between $45,000 and $100,000 per year running a school of illegal children.

This is what modern day human trafficking looks like.

C’mon, lets make America Great Again! Hello? Anyone?

It’s Time to Wake Up, Seriously..

Okay, so people want to know what will happen when “Dooms Day” disintegrates or breaks off and floats into ocean currents.

For those who don’t know or have given absolutely no thought to this, our Planet is apart of a system, and that system is the solar system.

Earth goes through cycles-similar to what we see when the seasons change-but on a much larger scale. We as people on this Planet cannot stop these cycles because they are natural. It’s a natural process or cycle of life, death, rejuvenation, cleansing, and so on.

“Dooms Day” is a glacier in Antarctica, and yes, a large portion of earth’s water is frozen at the moment. It’s obvious what’s going to happen if “Dooms Day” dissolves in the warmer ocean water; the sea level will rise, but if that’s happening, then the earth is probably going through a global climate change.

If you read, The Atlantis Blueprint, then you’re familiar with the evidence presented on pole changes. We know the alignment of the pole changed from the Hudson Bay. I wrote about this a long time ago, but it’s a good time to bring it back up. Chares Hapgood was a professor who spent his entire life studying ancient civilizations. Well, he wrote to a man named Rand Flem-Ath in 1982 to tell him about the evidence he discovered concerning the displacement of the Earth’s crust, which moved North and South America southward by 30 degrees to their current location.

Hapgood also had information and evidence of a cycle of civilization in America and Antarctica that suggested advanced levels of science going back 100,000 years. Immediately, Rand was blown away and decided to reach out to Hapgood. Rand never received a response, and two-weeks later, his later was returned stamped “deceased”. Mysteriously, Hapgood was killed after being hit by a car.

SMH

You could say all this is bullshit, but then we have Sitchin’s book, The 12th Planet. Hapgood was correct, and we have another situation here where two unrelated texts kind prove each other.

The point is that deserts weren’t always deserts. According to Sitchin, earth’s great ice sheets began to recede which made the Near East hospitable 430,000 years ago, or 15,000 years after the Nefilim arrived on earth.

There was a global interglacial period 400,000 years ago, and then a new one 200,000 years ago that ended when the climate began to warm 100,000 years ago, which was right around the time Hapgood’s evidence pointed to advanced technology and advanced levels of science.

So you can see how these texts, although unrelated, are complimentary to one another. 75,000 years ago the earth went through an ice age that ended with Noah’s flood approximately 13,000 years ago.

Eventually, something will happen and all the ice covering Antarctica will melt, the sea levels will rise, and life as we know it will change dramatically. The idea is to enjoy the time we have here, don’t stress, and don’t believe that you getting in your car everyday and driving to work is responsible for the earth’s climate change.

There are people in Antarctica right now that are melting ice at warp speeds to see what’s under it, but they’ll turnaround and blame us. They say we’re responsible for causing the global temperature to rise which is causing the ice to melt at faster speeds.

No man. The earth is going to do its thing no matter what.

I digress, but seriously, it’s time to wake up! There are authors out here giving death-bed confessions, lets not let them die in vain. Lets put their research to good use and promote a change here on earth that probably should’ve happened thousands of years ago.

No one should be bored right now. We need new prophets, new explorers, and new leaders. It’s time.
