John Scalzi stole Pat's idea, made it better, and wrote the book.

[Stent]

Herd Immunity was Pat's book about a female space marine protecting space elephants. He came up with the idea (or did he steal it as usual?) and never wrote a thing.

John Scalzi wrote a book about a guy in New York who quits his Uber-Eats job during the Covid pandemic to protect alternate Earth monsters in danger.

It's not set in space (everything is though if you think about it) and it's not a female protagonist but there's enough similarity there. It also sounds extremely gay and designed for the faggot audience they both aim at. Somehow, this professional author managed to write the book within a year. I guess he's not a drunk layabout farting his way through life in a dive bar.

Tor Books doesn't want your Tiny Tim garbage, Pat.

Say what you will about this probable kid toucher but at least his book artwork is decent.

I remember when science fiction asked tough moral and ethical questions about the effects of technology on the human soul. But yeah, fucking godzilla is getting hunted by ghost wizards and shit. Genius stuff, I'm glad they let just any jackoff be a writer now.

The quote on the cover basically says it's for dummies. "Accessible" lol

Hope his next book is called Halloween Havoc and about a guy named Tiny Tom who solves mmmmurdas.

Pat was all excited to get the go ahead from his agent and a publisher, telling him to finish the novel.

They replied: not so.

Calling an author "the most entertaining, accessible writer working in Scifi today" sounds more like a backhanded insult than praise.

Don't forget the shoehorned sex scenes, especially in Rick's books.

He is so fucking needy. Constantly tweeting out his progress so that the stupid cunts on twitter can give him asspats. I love that his writing career is over.

Well, we know that blabbing his guts to HuffPost.info reporters was about five hours of time. What about the other 8,755 hours, Fatrick?

 

[DominusOdium]

How many unsold or abandoned manuscripts has he got now, since he got shown out by Tor?

New theory: Pat befriends other authors to find out their rough book plots, then immediately writes something very similar but of his typical low quality. He then sends it to the publishers who have already signed deals with those other authors. This forces their hand to buy his shitty books for the sole reason of not allowing the publishing of them to prevent any future legal problems.

Hate for Fatrick and Paul to give Scalzi negative Goodreads reviews.

He put it on the back burner to finish working on that screenplay he sent out for coverage.
