This outfit spammed us. NEVER do business with spammers! I found this thread on Twitter. And, this article an author wrote about them. Never pay for book reviews! If you have to pay to join a site, and get reviews, you ARE PAYING FOR REVIEWS!
Bradford Literary House / bradfordliteraryhouse.com (created March, 2024 – as of this writing, the website is down)
This “company” shares various addresses and phone numbers with Great Writers Media / greatwritersmedia.com (do NOT miss that one on this page!), Book Builder Studio / bookbuilderstudio.com, Book Horizon Literary House / bookhorizonliteraryhouse.com, and Penguin Literary House (no website). Despite their U.S. addresses on their websites, Facebook shows that Great Writers Media is in the PHILIPPINES. This website (and others associated with it) is listed on WriterBeware’s Publishing/Marketing/Fake Literary Agency Scams List. Know how we connected this outfit to Penguin Literary House (trademark infringer!)? We googled the company’s name and they had left metadata verbiage up that said, “Penguin Literary House offers these editorial services to help you…” SLOPPY WEBSITE WORK BY SCAMMERS is NOT unusual!!
