    Other way around. If your fantasy / sci-fi novel does not sell well, rebrand it as a new groundbreaking “history”. Include how it gets ridiculed by main stream science that does maliciously ignore all the evidence.

    You have instantly gained a huge, uncritical customer and fan base.

    Edited a few typos.

          Seriously? I heard it was one of the worst movies of all time so I stayed away. Or was it because of the scientology? Like if I ignore that, is it pretty decent?

            It’s a terrible movie. Verges on so bad it’s good. Uses more dutch angles than a crooked windmill.

            Book was mediocre with a Mary Sue main that had Goodboy for a last name.

              “verges on so bad it’s good” so to me that says that it’s about as bad as it can possibly get, before crossing the line into something I can laugh at, would that be an accurate representation?

                Yeah, drunk or stoned with a group of SF nerds shit talking it would be a fun party, actually.

              I never saw the movie, but I can accept mediocre for the book. I thought it was a fun take aliens and alternative history. The writing style is a bit like a morally superior american, but I can read past that (…I guess, because I completely forgot that part).
