(left) Outskirts Press founder Brent Sampson wrote that Roget's Thesaurus was published by Peter Mark (actually, Peter Roget published it), confused a foreword with a preface, and misspelled "offset." Brent advises that "Errors in your writing cause readers to question your credibility." He's right about that.

"We publish a huge number of really bad books." If Bob knows they're really bad books, he shouldn't publish them. Bob also misspelled "misspell" and confused "less" and "fewer." A publisher should know better.
(right) Thomas Nelson Publishers CEO Michael Hyatt operates a blog that automatically blocks comments from people who have disagreed with him in the past, without any human being reading the comment. Nelson recently formed a "Christian" vanity press division, WestBow Press. Westbow lies about being a self-publishing company and lies about providing "free" books. What would Jesus do?
