#SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek

I think spam emails like these are very instructive when it comes to AI. It's basically just parroting my own copy back to me in the form of a garbled, almost-sensible word salad.

Anyone else got any nonsense like this recently?

All of its issues notwithstanding (it looks like a worse movie in every way), it was always going to be hard to not feel underwhelmed by its sequel’s trailer when THE SOCIAL NETWORK has one of the best trailers of all time.

It's time for #SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek

I can now add RuPaul to the list of illustrious, eclectic and occasionally supposedly deceased figures who have emailed about my (unreleased) novel.

Anyone else had any spam from any notable celebrities recently?

This #SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek is an old classic.

I'm going to greet everyone this way from now on. 'Hello Accountant'... 'Hello Teacher'... 'Hello King of the Andals and the Rhoynar and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm'

It comes around quicker than you think. It's #SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek time!

Another tame but entertaining title error. There are indeed some worthy scares in The Worth of Scars.

Anyone else got any good self-publishing related spam recently?

#SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek? Oh, go on then.

What an opening. The social media numbers felt unnecessary and a bit underwhelming, but top notch otherwise.

Anyone got any good bits of self-publishing related spam recently?

#SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek time!

Another only mildly interesting one, but it amused me to read the greeting in Ben Kenobi's voice.

Anyone got any better bits of self-publishing related spam recently?

#SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek already??

Andrew Neil being desperate to interview me about my not-yet-released, self-published debut fantasy novel is quite amusing to me, not sure exactly why.

Anyone had any too-good-too-be-true offers this week?

#SelfPublishing #IndieAuthor

[Gabriel Farrell @GFarrellWriter]

Is it #SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek time? I think it might just be!

Another mildly funny incorrect title, presumably based on a social media/blog post (that interestingly has the real title underneath it...)

Anyone got any good ones this week?

@robinhobb I've started making a game of it to save me from despair by posting the more entertaining ones I receive as #SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek. I appreciate you're a little past being self-published, but do post any funny ones if you get them!

[Gabriel Farrell @GFarrellWriter]

@LordGrimdark Rather than let it get to me, I've started playing a game of #SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek. Appreciate you're a little past self-publishing, but do post your best if there any you find entertaining!

[Gabriel Farrell @GFarrellWriter]

Did this person time travel here from the 90s?

[dazzling @UtterlyVapid]

Television is still a downgrade from film and also Chase Infiniti is too early in her career for that to matter.

[Gabriel Farrell @GFarrellWriter]

I do think they're overdoing it a bit on the "air-quotes" however. Makes it sound almost sarcastic...

[Gabriel Farrell @GFarrellWriter]

It's #SelfPublishingSpamoftheWeek time!

Now, most of the spam I get is extremely low-effort. Incorrect or no name, incorrect or no book title etc. This, on the other hand, is some truly excellent work! Other spammers, take note!
