    I had paid The Ewings Publishing a total of $850 for the Sapphire package, that included the US Copyright Registration which I did not received. Ewings Publishing is the most dishonest Publisher that I have ever known or worked with. They lied and claimed that I did not paid them the second half of the $850 ($425), which I did on February 3, 2023. It was wishful thinking on their part, because I kept both of my receipts that I sent to them. Also, I have yet to received 1 cent of royalties from Ewings Publisher, and they usually play hard to get when I try to reach them. I would like to resolve this problem by receiving my Copyright Registration that was promised me by email on June 13, 2024, for my "Beatitudes" book published in February 25, 2023, by The Ewings Publishing. In addition, I would like to have this information filed concerning Ewings to help prevent future Authors from being scammed from their hard earned money and deceived by them.

    We are currently investigating this case and gathering all the necessary details. We will contact the author as soon as possible. Additionally, we are retrieving data from our printer to ensure we haven't missed any sales for her book. I will have our director reach out to her once we have everything compiled. Thank you.

    The Ewings publishing company is a fraud. They jerked me around, took 1800 dollars from me and took a month to get back to me, two weeks the second time. they are always unavailable on the phone, my representative made several false claims then quit in the middle of it, compromised my personal information, and their legal team notified me of it. It takes weeks for them to get back to you, nobody ever mans the phones. They did one crappy edit of my book, in two months so I fired them and they won't refund my money. I did the cover, and the girl who quit has been shopping my book to other publishers without my consent, they promised to make up for it then couldn't get them on the phone or emails for weeks. they refused to return my calls, did not publish my book and when I contested it with chase ***** they claimed they published my book. I have never seen such a bunch of criminals in my life.

    This company has called me, relentlessly, endlessly, harassing me with nonstop messages from *********************, evidently the ONLY EMPLOYEE. I am on the do not call list. I have received well over 150 calls in the past year, sometimes receiving one or more calls every day despite being on the do not call list. This is illegal. This company is a harassing scam company. When I called to demand they desist, the cowardly employee hung up in my face and refused to answer any of my calls. I want an apology and an agreement to never ever call me again.
