There are so many. . . but I'd have to say the pay-to-play game is the worst. The idea that authors can BUY their way to apparent success, whether it be reviews, awards, followers, or entire platforms, is distasteful to me. It bothered me to such an extent, it inspired me to write The $1.99 Author (Available late 2020.) so would-be authors and seasoned veterans alike might better understand the big-picture of the book publishing racket; allowing them to make more informed choices about where to spend their money and time.
