In my search, I've come across multiple posts with disaapointed or confused freelancers who have been taken by Vezeo.<BR/><BR/>I also emailed them asking about rights and royalties, and received no response whatsoever.<BR/><BR/>Apparently this Timothy White is an excellent marketer, though, because he has put out dozens of press releases touting Vezeo as the next big thing. It's not! It's a blog with a good web designer that fools writers into thinking they're being "published."<BR/><BR/>Sorry to burst your bubbles, but the word should get out that Vezeo is not worth any writer's time, is not a path to being legitimately published, and seems to be operating by unethical--if not illegal--business practices.<BR/><BR/>A few other posts I found:<BR/><BR/>http://www.freelancewritinggigs.com/freelance-writing-jobs-for-tuesday-october-9-2007/<BR/><BR/>http://www.freelancewritinggigs.com/freelance-writing-gigs-for-tuesday-november-13-2007/Ashleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37209461.post-36260898859682423592007-11-13T08:32:00.000-08:002007-11-13T08:32:00.000-08:00elsie: ohh...no wonder, i thought you had some pri...elsie: ohh...no wonder, i thought you had some private blog that no one but selected ppl can enter hehe.<BR/><BR/>tracy: Thanks my dear, the food is pretty good for a place that lacks service. Aih.. it's just too bad about the lack of service though.<BR/><BR/>renaye: Thanks for dropping by and for leaving me a note. Hope to see more of you soon! :)<BR/><BR/>steamykitchen: Thanks hun :) I'm still quite pissed at Vezeo. They're quite assholish and if they do not mend things I probably will not write for them again. I'm still waiting to hear from the publisher (because the editor took it to that level for god knows why since he's the one who probably edited my article and should deal with me personally).
