Just to let people know (I'm not casting any opinions or anything here)... It appears that Ghostwriter Publications has been reincarnated into a new company called Next Generation Publications. Here's a link to their (rather familiar looking) new website: www.generationnextpublications.com/index.shtmlGWP had gained itself a rather bad name over the last couple of years. I wonder if this white-washing approach to Neil Jackson's publishing ventures will also show a change in their business practice? Only time will tell...

The Guy who runs this USED to work for GWP but found he could not work there...he was their US web guy...He made sure that royalties that were due were paid. The blokes name is Stephen. And to me he seems completely different to Neil......Here's hoping anyway

Hmmmm...fair do's. I have noticed various bits of 'chatter' about Stephen Price and him leaving GWP etc. Although a lot of the publications on the GNP website seem to be old GWP releases.
Do you know if he has cut all ties with GWP, or is he working alongside them (Neil) but retailing GWP releases on behalf of them?
Also, is it just me or does the GNP website look remarkably similar to the old GWP one?

Steve Price is most certainly not Neil Jackson. I know there are folks out there who'll just flat out refuse to believe me, but that's not my problem. I left GWP back in November and joined Steve, taking some, but not all of the covers with me to maintain continuity. Steve has paid me on time every month since then, and its substantial sums of money every month as the ebooks are selling very well. And he's set up a print side to his business with a FLIPIT imprint that will publish, next week, my books THE INVASION and THE VALLEY in tete-beche format which has me pretty damned excited.

Cheers for the reply Willie. Have you actually met with SJP?
Just to clarify a few things though...
The GNP website was still put together by NJ right? It's got his fingerprints all over it (so to speak).
Also, I'd be right in saying that this was written by NJ too, wasn't it? It's got all of NJ's very strong mannerisms etc in it:
"Most self publishers don’t have a background in graphic design and find the task of laying out their book to be a very daunting project. The thought of learning typeface and font styles and sizes, front matter (preliminaries), margins, headers and footers, text flow, orphans and widows (yes, these are actual layout terms) and back matter is downright scary to most authors who would be better off writing their next novel than formatting their last one.
If you’ve completed an eBook, you probably have a simplified formatted file and a front cover. That’s really all you need to enter the exploding eBook market, but many authors also want the hard copy book to go along with the electronic version (I have both.) Whether it’s personal (my mother and wife wanted a paperback) or financial (copies are selling), I think it’s a good idea to keep a foot in each corner (new electronic market and old-school hard copy market.)"
I'm just curious, if SJP isn't in fact NJ, then just how much of an involvement does NJ have in GNP? I'm no Hercule Poirot, but there's a lot of NJ in the GNP website (colour choices, font, layout, design, website application tools, mannerisms in text etc.).
I'm not trying to make any trouble here. I'm just very curious about it all, because it seems a little odd to me after simply stumbling across the GNP website, the first thing I thought was...oh...this is surely another new NJ project...

No idea about the website. But I'm sure Steve is not NJ. I haven't met him, but I have it from more than a few other US authors that I trust that Steve is who he says he is. My payment comes from Arizona and Steve is taxed as a US citizen by Amazon. The other giveaway is that he's getting things done, on time, and getting product out to people.

Cheers again from the response Willie.
As you know, I have nothing against you at all, and no reason not to trust your judgement.
However...
After having a bit of a search through the internet, I am now pretty damn convinced that SJP & NJ are one in the same person.
The online 'interviews' with SJP once again use the same mannerisms as NJ. As a few people on this forum are already aware, at one stage I was in regular communication with NJ regarding providing GWP with reviews. I started reviewing some early chapbooks, but when I realised that a lot of people were losing money by the company (orders not being fulfilled etc) I stepped out. I didn't think it was right to promote a company that might well end up ripping off these customers.
However, because of our email conversations, I got to know how NJ spoke and acted. I'm convinced that SJP and NJ are the same person.
I'm not going to post anything more on the subject, but will sit back and watch from a safe distance.
Willie - you're a nice guy. Please make sure that you're not going to get associated with something that is getting even more dodgy by the second (i.e. potential tax evasion etc). Keep records of all your transactions with SJP / GNP. Perhaps even try to force a meeting with SJP???
I so hope I'm wrong about this...
