    Fraudulent business. This site:
    http://www.fictionmagazines.com/
    They took my money and never delivered the product promised.

    Since then, I’ve contacted my lawyers via LegalShield (my lawyers can be reached at deminglaw.com) I’m on the verge of warning everyone I know to avoid this website and the business it represents.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
