How Not To Get Published - How To Win the WWOTYA - 7, Relationship With Your Publisher
So, despite the advice you have been provided with and your efforts to follow each of them, you have got a positive letter from a publisher. Do not go into a panic. Several options are still within reach to avoid getting published.
Publishing houses want to publish books in order to make money with them. From time to time, the publisher knows that the book will not pay for itself before his own death, but he publishes it anyway out of personal taste and makes the other publications pay for his caprice. This scenario is common in academic edition. It is a field in which best sellers of the week are rare but in which best sellers of the decade are rather frequent. No author of academic books will ever receive the WWO

The obvious way not to get published even after your manuscript has been accepted is to ask for more money than the amount the publisher is ready to give you. It is the easiest way, it may not be the surest one. If they want your book, you risk to be granted with one or even one and a half extra percent.
The last way is really the one to choose: refuse any editing. It works, whatever the publisher’s decision.
Speak with haughtiness, explain that a masterpiece as the one you have written cannot be altered in any manner. It cannot be wordy, still less boring at time; it is never somewhat unfocused; it is enriched by interesting digressions. You have a lot to say to the world. Cloak yourself in your assurance and walk away. Your dignified attitude will prevent most publishers from dealing with you. Your work will remain unchanged. And unread. You succeed not to get published.
Very few publishers, if any, will accept to publish your work without any editing. Because very few manuscripts, if any, are perfect. But if you are lucky enough to find the real gem, the one who publishes your book as it stands, you are almost sure to win the WWOTYA.
It is not totally by chance that the worst books are found among those whose the author and the publisher are the same person.

Another Round of Paganism
TRUTH and UNDERSTANDING - An electronic magazine of real
knowledge
Millions, perhaps billions of people will once again run
full throttle into the upcoming fall and winter holiday
seasons of Halloween and Christmas. Many fully acknowledge
that the customs of these events are deeply rooted in
paganism.
Many take paganism as an ugly word, but it simply means
teachings of the nations that did not know the Jewish or
Hebrew God of the Bible. An important point to always
remember is that the Hebrews or Israelites and not the
nations (non Hebrews) were the ones who brought us the
knowledge of God. Even in the New Testament we know that
Jesus and the Apostles were Israelites. This is why
scripture says, “You worship what you do not know; we know
what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.” So it always
comes as a surprise to me that the tail (the nations) tries
to wag the dog when it comes to religious knowledge. Yet
this is what is commonly allowed in the so-called Christian
holidays.
The Catholic encyclopedia seems to struggle
somewhere between acknowledging that modern Christianity has
incorporated pagan teachings and no it is just a
coincidence. A coincidence? When you look at the
preponderance of coincidences like a day for all the dead
Saints that comes on the heels of an ancient Celtic fire
festival called Samhain (notice that this is a nations non
Hebrew pagan teaching here) now called Halloween in which
we have children dressing as demons, ghosts and skeletons or
we shift to Christmas and really examine through some simple
web research about the origin of these Bacchanalian or
Saturnalia type festivities.
Research the origins of the
Yule log, tree, mistletoe, wreaths, greenery, birthdays,
gifts, caroling (yes even seemingly innocent Christmas
carols are from ancient circle dances dealing with fertility
rites of the medieval Celtic countries of Europe) and
lights. Bacchanalian festivities also had parties celebrated
with drinking and promiscuity orgies and riotousness. The
Saturnalia festivities also included exchanging gifts,
greenery, lights etc. It is impossible to
