“Check Your Books” Event With Rhonda Rees

check-your-booksindie

Our friend Rhonda Rees is having another “Check Your Books” PSA campaign online piracy event during the first annual “Indie Author Day” on October 8.  If you are planning on attending this event be sure to stop by and visit with Rhonda about this issue that is effecting authors.  Here is a section from the article and the link so you can view the complete article for the “Check Your Books” campaign on PRWeb: http://www.prweb.com/releases/2016/09/prweb13717092.htm

During the month of October, she is encouraging authors and publishers to run detailed Google and Bing searches to see if their work is compromised by being offered for “free” without their knowledge or permission. She wants them to plug in the title of their book, or books, the author’s name, and the words ‘free downloads’ to see what comes up.

Unfortunately, this is a subject that Rees knows about first-hand. Her US copyrighted, trademarked, registered and award-winning book, “Profit and Prosper with Public Relations®: Insider Secrets to Make You a Success was being offered as a free download on several sites without her consent. https://www.amazon.com/Profit-Prosper-Public-Relations-Rhonda/dp/0982223501

Rees is far from the only one that this situation is happening to. Countless other unsuspecting authors across the globe are also left vulnerable to these unscrupulous Internet thieves. “It’s not just the famous recording artists and celebrities that are being ripped off anymore. Instead, online book piracy is having an impact on the average person in a very big way,” says Rees.

Ep 42 ComicPop Visits with Rhonda Rees about Book Piracy, Pt 2

Join the ComicPop Crew in our second part of our visit with Rhonda Rees of Rhonda Rees PR.  Rhonda is the author of Profit and Prosper with Public Relations: Insider Secrets to Make You a Success, which was pirated.  With her recent accolades: Publicist of the Year from the Book Publicists of Southern California; an IRWIN Award (Industry Recognition of Writers in the News); and most recently Rhonda has been the recipient of the Publicist of the Year Award from the Bulldog Reporter, she has set about to educate the industry on the real threat of book piracy that exists not only for the big press, but for the small press as well.

Thank you again to Rhonda for visiting with us.  It was a pleasure and we look forward to visiting with her again.  We have her title, Profit and Prosper with Public Relations: Insider Secrets to Make You a Success, that she is graciously allowing us to read and then get back with her to visit specifically about her book and the Public Relations field.
