Yes, Yes, before any of our other thread members comments, I am aware that a lot of MR-member authors do publish there, but many first-time authors who have invested precisely zero time and effort in learning their craft have, also. Too many of them read the infamous "Smashwords formatting Guide" and drink that KoolAid, too. The "Nuclear Method" has a lot to answer for.

Snipped most of this post.
I just wanted to comment on this part.
I think some authors only know the word upload. I don't think they have ever read anything.
To the OP: There is a ton of crap "books" out there.
