Dispute on X Post Over Easter
Very amusing for the flamers out there: I recently posted a simple short post on X on Easter day to the effect that Easter was a pagan holiday usurped by Christians. Seemed a simple statement of fact to me, easily proven by ancient documents n authorities on myth n religion.
However, a few Christians (here Xers for short) decided to take offense at my minor observation n launch a flame war against Equus. Nothing better to do with their time, I suppose. Last count on that post: 49,000 views; 18 likes (mostly pagans I’m sure); 8 shares; n 66 comments (mostly Xers I presume). Suddenly it appears Equus is dinner table conversation in a number of homes. I was even accused of being a supporter of Kamala n AOC! Altho I have a delete sign on a picture of Kamala on the back of my car, n I campaigned for Trump, n I have repeatedly called for the conviction of AOC for immigration fraud n her deportation. It seems critics on X don’t bother investigating anyone before they hurl accusations n leap to conclusions.
But then I didn’t expect any different. The evidence for Xers usurping pagan holidays–after slaughtering 1000s of pagans n destroying 100s of pagan temples n defacing their statues n burning their libraries in a 4th century Jihad–is massive enough to fill libraries. These facts won’t be accepted from me, of course, so no point in trying.
Still, as they say: any publicity is good publicity so long as they spell your name right. And Equus just got more exposure than a dozen paid ads. Keep up the good work, Xers!
Commentary On Today’s Publishers – Feminists Seize Publishing, by Harold Covington
This is a partial reprint for editorial and review purposes of H. Covington’s article. It is dated but still highly relevant to today’s publishing. Read the full article here:

Feminists Seize PublishingHarold Covington |
I have a couple of interesting personal observations to indicate which vicious little minority seems to be winning the culture wars within the left-wing elitist establishment, at least since the Clintons took power.
As some of you know, I also write fiction, and as a kind of hobby I try to market it, mostly to collect and analyze the rejection slips. Needless to say, all my stuff is far too politically incorrect to be published, but some of the responses are suggestive and revealing. The Jews, of course, maintain overall business and financial control of the world publishing industry through the five or six major conglomerates, but what I begin to find fascinating is the editorial aspect of it, where The Agenda is most visible.
My Civil War murder mystery novel has, of course, always been rejected, usually with great frankness by editors who admit that they cannot publish a book with a Confederate hero. (Perhaps significantly, they always say that they cannot publish a pro-Southern book, not that they will not.) But lately it seems as if the radical feminists have taken over the editorial boards of most publishers. The determination to publish or not has moved away from race to an author’s politically correct (or otherwise) treatment of his female fictional characters.
One of the most immediately obvious results of this situation is something that has been noted by a number of literary reviewers and scholars, and that is the virtually total collapse, over the past fifteen years, of science fiction as a literary genre. Most ‘science fiction’ nowadays, as a quick trip down the aisles of your local Waldenbooks or Barnes and Noble looking at the covers will confirm, is actually ‘science fantasy’ involving mythical lands of dragons, elves, magic, and of course all kinds of fetching liberated female characters, witches or space princesses or Xena the Warrior Maiden types who spend the whole book doing down assorted evil males who want to dominate them and make them have babies or some such. (A good example is the last female captain of the Enterprise in the Star Trek series; White males have virtually disappeared from Star Trek since its inception 30 years ago.)

Don’t Use Stripe – Anti-white, Anti-male, Very Very Woke
Communication from Odysee. Many pro-American sites have been placed on a blacklist of payment processors, unable to locate a single one that will service them. This is what monopoly looks like as most payment processors are actually owned by a very few globalist banks.

Dear Odysee Stripe User,
Payment processing services are currently inactive. Stripe had previously assured us that they understood our situation, confirmed our account was in good standing, and said they would continue to support us during our transition away from their platform. Despite this, they abruptly terminated our account without any prior notice. This sudden action appears to be the result of the same kind of coordinated brigading that started this entire fiasco, and we were given no opportunity to respond or appeal. We are continuing to develop an alternative payment solution and sincerely appreciate your ongoing support during this transition.
For content creators with members-only content, any subscribers who were active as of today will retain access. If you’d like to change this at any point, you can update your uploads directly on Odysee or reach out to us for help. For users with Odysee Premium, your benefits will remain active.
We hope to share an updated timeline with you all in the coming days for a temporary payment solution that matches Stripe’s features and gets you back to business quickly, all while we work toward the longer term solution we told you about.
Sincerely,

Temple of the Double Sun published
My latest sci-fi novel, Temple of the Double Sun is now published by the noted sci-fi publisher TWB Press. I was first uncertain whether to call it a Prequel to the book Maalstrom, like The Selk King is the sequel. But at TWB’s suggestion I decided it was simpler just to call Temple “Book 1” and relabeling Maalstrom as “Book 2” and The Selk King “Book 3”.
CLICK HERE FOR A KILLER VIDEO BY TWB PRESS FOR TEMPLE OF THE DOUBLE SUN!
This novel tells the story of the original colonists fleeing from an Earth in collapse as they land on the virgin uninhabited planet Maalstrom with instructions to colonize the planet, each of 24 men having seven wives, for a total of 192 colonists plus 8 eunuch engineers. Kind of like Dr. Strangelove. For readers of Maalstrom and The Selk King who were wondering how it all started and why there are occasional remnants of a prior technical society, the novel Temple of the Double Sun will answer all your questions.
The Genociding of the American Male
A sad tale to post today. Reflecting on my past and the past of other men who are now my age as I recall them from the days of our youth, it is quite strange n amazing to me to see how many came to bad ends.
- drug addiction
- alcoholism
- dropping out
- poverty
- chronic unemployment
- divorce
- loneliness
- insanity
- suicide
This is the tale of many of my erstwhile comrades whom I grew up with–all men–who seemed to have such bright futures when we were kids.
One obtained a college degree, became a lawyer then a meth addict n died in his 40s. Another completed most of a college degree, dropped out to take a good job when the economy was good, but was then laid off, fell into alcohol and died of exposure on the local version of Skid Row in his 30s. Another got a degree from an Ivy League college and got a good job, but somehow fell into heavy drug use, divorced, n died by his own hand at the age of 60. A good guy, brilliant. Two more fried their brains with drugs while still teenagers, never attended college, n now survive on government support.
One did okay, we touched base just the other day after many years of having drifted apart, tho still mired in poverty after all these years. Another divorced but just remarried, after all these years, at the tender age of 70! Several brothers were thrown into the job market without college because their parents divorced. One just died of chronic poverty at the age of 69 with no access to health care. A second, who had a brilliant mind, spent his life stocking 7-11’s. At least he married n his marriage is holding. A third became a pastor, not married. The other two scrape by as best they can with chronic unemployment. None of them have children because a single man with a working class job can no longer afford children in modern America.
Several more I knew were attempted suicides, one went insane partly due to chronic marijuana use n was committed. Another was smug n unfriendly to me; when his marriage fell apart he suddenly started calling me as if we were old friends, loneliness in his voice, just wanting someone to talk to. Yet another fell into drugs as a teenager when his parents divorced n he never recovered. Alcohol, pot, n who knows what else ran his life until he too was committed into a chronic drug abuse shelter, never having completed high school, his health wrecked. I once let him live with me and loaned him money so he could find a job. I came back later and found he had broken back into my apartment and was passed out on the floor having spent the money on booze, pot, cigarettes, and girlie mags. I had to send him packing.
Later on, as a lawyer I encountered many such men. I found a guy in a wheelchair living behind a MacDonalds. He had been homeless n broke his pelvis in a bicycle accident. I managed to get him registered with Social Security n helped him get into a Ramada Inn. Then he disappeared. Even the desk clerks claimed not to know where he went. Could he have died at the change in climate n the clerks did not want to advertise the fact? I guess I’ll never know. I also met a guy living in a storage unit in a building, not telling the clerks that he was sleeping in his unit every night.
Question: why is there no organization that can assist young men in the transition to adult life with potential useful guidance BEFORE they fall into drugs n alcohol? Before they make commitments like marriage n children before they are ready? Why are there no services for men while there are large numbers of service organizations for women? What does a man do when he is young, ignorant, naive, confused, uninformed, is faced with huge tasks n responsibilities but has no one to offer friendship or a word of advice? Why are there so many lonely single men who took the bad advice that the single life without family is the way to go and that if you reach your thirties, it’s time to marry.
Throughout history every society ever identified had a male-only society that was designed to help young men learn how to become men, societies that were intended for all men, not just a few cultists or backpackers, n which provided friends n socialization for mature men. The U.S. is the only society known to history that has NO male-only societies for normal men, all such societies having been banished or compromised by America’s pathological feminism that brands all masculinity as ‘toxic’. The result is plain for all to see: among American men an epidemic of drugs, alcohol, dropping out of school, poverty, unemployment, divorce, loneliness, insanity, n suicide. And for some, even gangs.
Maybe the Equus Order can help fill the need to help guide men past these shoals n hidden reefs that lie in wait especially for men who may have internalized the lie that masculinity is toxic, that men must never ask each other for help, that men need no friends.
Sci-fi Fiction Before Fact on EVs
Reading about today’s Electric Vehicles causing some drivers to become imprisoned inside when the electrical system fails is already familiar to me conceptually.
From my novel JIHAD BUBBA, which I wrote back in 2020:
– – –
Bubba sighed. He popped the clutch [on his gas-driven jeep].
As he resumed driving, more Januses [EVs] crossed his path—in fact, were unavoidable wherever he drove. Several times he had to down-clutch to prevent collision with Januses reversing direction, turning in circles and tangling traffic, or stuck going back and forth all day in the same spot, some jumping up and down in failed attempts to become airborne. Speeding, crawling, customer occupants locked inside swearing at their phones and at the gods, to no avail.
In other words, a typical day.
Yet another Janus peeled out of traffic and carved endless circles, forcing Bubba to drive carefully around as its passenger managed to force open the door and escape. . .

Email Exchange on Woke Censorship of Men
RECENT EXCHANGE WITH A FRUSTRATED WHITE MALE WRITER:
Writer: Dear Glenn, I am a Pulitzer Prize winning writer… My latest novel XXX (2017) was represented by XXX Agency, which is no longer viable. It was described as “Guy Lit” by one reviewer, a male-oriented story of alienation in the family and culture. My ambition as a writer is and has always been to bring men to literary fiction.
Equus: Thanks for contacting me at Equus… I am looking for “guy lit”, it is a pet peeve of mine that men no longer read. If men don’t read, then publishers will be reluctant to publish “guy lit”. My own experience, traditionally published and self-published, is that not only is the male market small and shrinking, but that today’s male readers read mostly at a 6th grade level. I would like to fix that.
Same Writer: I’m looking for an independent publisher, knowing my white male voice isn’t getting past the XXX and XXX interns at literary agencies. My novel XXX about police PTSD was disqualifed by several agents because “publishers won’t accept a book about urban crime from a white writer.” … Literary fiction for men, cut from the cloth of Hemingway, Faulkner, Steinbeck, Updike, et al., has all but disappeared. I think you’re onto something.
Equus: I think I will change the byline for Equus to “Books For Men”. That’s more memorable than “Books for Language Lovers”. I am trying to establish a publishing facility for white males who are tired of being delegated to the bottom of the Intersectional Ladder as a new class of ‘Untouchables’.
Same Writer: Thanks, Glenn. Maybe the new slogan should be Books for the Underrepresented & Marginalized!
– – –
If Pulitzer Prize winning writers can’t find an agent any more willing to represent them to NY publishers due to the writer’s ethnicity, what does that say in regard to Mr. Jacob Jans’ statements below?
MY EXCHANGE WITH JACOB JANS OF AUTHORS PUBLISH:
Glenn,
Thank you for the reply. I think we’re at an impasse here, as we seem to see the facts very differently… I do agree that it is harder to get published as a man than in previous years, as the imbalance towards men is indeed gone, but that is very different than saying that men aren’t getting published.
[Equus: Note Mr. Jans’ Woke message again: ‘The past was evil, and because of your identity I am therefore justified in oppressing you today.’ This sounds suspiciously like: ‘Your great-great-great grandpap once had a black slave, therefore we are justified in discriminating against you today, though you know nothing about this ancient history and in no way benefited, but it justifies us in taking your job and your money away from you and keeping it for ourselves.’ That’s called illegal Woke identity politics, which unfortunately permeates publishing today.]
All the best,
Jacob Jans
Authors Publish
Dear Jacob,
Thank you for your prompt reply and for the additional info.
However, I am sorry to say that your message is what I expected to hear from the Woke world of publishing and that you have confirmed my outlook. It is clear that you apply your standard of “Does not align with our guiding principles” only to the usual writers and viewpoints traditionally disfavored by Wokism since Equus is open to publishing works by anyone at all and my policy therefore is no different in that regard than any other publisher that you list. But you are still unhappy with Equus and will not list it and you justify this Woke censorship by talking about pendulums, a form of affirmative action, which is illegal and morally indefensible. People living in the prejudicial Woke bubble never seem to realize that’s where they live. I notice you did not comment on the new trend among New York publishers to no longer publish anything written by a man, sight unseen. [Equus Comment: I should have said ‘anything written of, by, and for white males, sight unseen’.]
Just to show my fairness in this matter, I freely acknowledge that the main reason most publishers don’t publish books for men is that Men Don’t Read. You are correct in noting that the market is elsewhere. I get that. And that fact is certainly not anyone’s fault. So maybe Equus is a quixotic venture from the start. But the publishing Blacklist on male-oriented books, and often on men per se, makes it more difficult.
Thank you again. I wish you the best.
Yours truly,
Glenn Lazar Roberts

Subject: Re: the Blacklist, etc
Glenn,
Thank you for sharing your experience and the frustration that goes with it.
It’s very common to have the kind of perspective you’ve shared here, not in terms of the issue being that you are a man (although others have worried that), but I have heard the same perspective from others that they are just not being published because they are women, disabled, people of color, older, etc. This is a common view even though the specifics are incredibly different.
I understand how distressing and unfair this can feel, especially because it can feel like a very personal kind of discrimination that is both systematic and targeted at you. Of course this would be distressing — and, ironically, this is a distressing and common concern for people who are very much in different groups.
I am not saying that maybe part of the issue you are facing is this factor, or that any of those other specifics listed are not also obstacles depending on the specifics, but the fact remains that most publishers still publish male authors. In some genres, such as romance, it’s rarer, but in most it is still very common.
[Equus Comment: Some white male writers only write Woke books, these are often published. Why won’t NY publishers support white males who write of, by, and for other white males, just as NY publishers freely publish women who write of, by, and for women, and minorities who write of, by, and for their specific minority? Why is it only white males who write for white males or who promote masculinity, that trigger the publishing Blacklist, and not any other group? Why do publishers insist on sorting writers into identity groups anyway?]
Many of the publishers we review are run by men, and according to Lee & Low’s Diversity survey 33% of most publishers are male run (62% are run by women). So while obviously there are a lot of women it involved it is not just run by women. I see lots of publishers still, especially in the SF and thriller genres who still mostly publish male authors and focus on that. I see this over and over again during my publisher reviews. (You can verify this by looking at recent debut book deals announced in Publishers Weekly.)
[Equus Comment: I invite Mr. Jacobs to re-examine the publishers that he promotes. Many of them state on their website that they either ‘encourage the historically underrepresented and marginalized to submit’, which is code for ‘White males need not bother submitting as they will be auto rejected’, or the sites explicitly state ‘We only publish women (or ‘we only publish blacks’, etc.) Yet Mr. Jans promotes such sites in his weekly lists, while refusing to list Equus Publishing.]
Back to my main point, in my experience, while identity can be a component, content, style, the current marketplace, are all bigger factors. Authors are choosing to focus on one aspect that is outside of their control to justify their experience, rather than to focus on the aspects inside of their control. I myself have fallen into this trap before, so I understand the appeal of it, especially when facing rejection again and again, which is always distressing.
That being said, if the focus of the books is on a particular brand of masculinity, that is not currently in favor by most publishers, and not just the fact that the author is male, there are more limited options.
[Equus Comment: This is code for the usual “we don’t publish stories that promote masculinity”, i.e., any story written of, by and for men. Yet they will gladly publish stories that characterize masculinity as ‘toxic’, even if written by a man.]
We’ve reviewed only a few publishers that fit this need of publishers that are “not woke” according to your request (please note that there are many other publishers we review that publish lots of work by men, and some might fall into this category, but these are two that clearly and directly fit there:
authorspublish.com/baen-accepting-manuscript-submissions/
authorspublish.com/skyhorse-publishing/
There are lots of other presses that are now finding there way into this space over the past two years. Sutherland House is one of them, and even though they are based in Canada their Substack might be helpful to you.
We don’t plan on covering Equus, because it does not align with our guiding principles, and it is not something that we personally feel needs more time and attention. This is because, among many other things, we only list publishers open to all writers around the world.
[Equus: Notice how Mr. Jans misrepresents Equus by claiming that Equus is not ‘open to all writers’ when the Equus website states plainly that it is open to anyone. And that Mr. Jans omits that his Authors Publish org promotes publishers each week that exclude whites or males. He is lying in commission and lying in omission.]
On a more personal point, as a man, I’ve observed that women were excluded from publishing for many years, even to the point where they had to pretend to be men just to get published. Personally, I don’t mind if the pendulum swings the other way for a while; and it certainly isn’t be a static situation.
[More Wokeness: ‘But you white males used to have it good, therefore we’re justified in discriminating against you now!’ This is the classic Woke pretext for implementing a policy of censorship and blacklisting white males that one sees entrenched in DEI / Woke institutions across the U.S. today, in violation of their constitutional rights. But Mr. Jans seems impervious to recognizing his own bias.]

Hi Author Publish,
Thank you for the many publisher lists you have put out. I greatly appreciate the information and have attempted to follow up on many. However, my experience with the publishers I have contacted has not been positive. Despite the dozens of gushing reviews my self-published books have received over the years, my submissions of my latest novels to over a hundred publishers have all been rejected. This, although I have spent years as a professional editor, provided editing services to other writers, and I have led a long-standing critique circle, and have recently completed my 9th novel.
It is my view that my works are being rejected out of hand not due to the quality of my work, but to the fact that I am a man. Almost every publisher I see is run by women and a great many of these publishers declare up front that they only want to see works by women, or works that feature women, or works that promote women. My novels are by a man, feature men, and promote masculinity. I am also unable to feature my books in local venues as they are not welcome (as I am not) by the women who run these venues because, in their words, they only like to see books that promote feminism.
Of the hundreds of publishers I have seen online through Author Publish, I have yet to encounter a single one that specializes in books of, by, and for men. I search every Authors Publish broadcast looking for a male-oriented category of publishers but I never see any. I did manage to get one of my novels published several years ago – by one of the very few publishing outfits headed by a man! But his outfit does not specialize in men’s works, and he too is shy of publishing anything of, by, and for men.
My question: Do you know of ANY publisher that specializes in books that are written of, by, and for men? Sci-fi, men’s psychology, men’s sociology, anything. Or is every publisher today Woke?
Personally, I have given up finding any such animal. It seems to me that male authors are being Blacklisted by women-run publishers and I have actually been contacted at my new entity Equus Publishing LLC by published male writers complaining to me that they can no longer find even an agent willing to market their books to publishers. The agents say “I’m sorry, but today’s publishers are not publishing men so I can no longer represent you.”
I have setup www.equuspublishing.com in order to fill this vacant niche. Perhaps predictably, every list so far that I have attempted to insert Equus Publishing into so the public can learn of the existence of my Equus Publishing ‘unicorn’, has refused to list my publishing entity! Yet these same lists include ‘publishers’ by women that don’t have working websites or a single book published.
Well, that’s all I wanted to say. And thank you again. Maybe the publishing industry will one day decide to offer something to male readers and seek to include them instead of Blacklisting men.

Jihad Bubba Ad Completed-Results
The Equus ad has finished running. Compared to FB, X has been efficient, reaching 540,000 people for only $300, or more precisely 540,000 ‘impressions’. That’s a bargain anywhere. I won’t know for a while how many copies of JIHAD BUBBA were actually sold by Amazon, if any, but the website quadrupled traffic for several days.
More people are now aware (hopefully) that Wokeness can be mocked via sci-fi satire, which was my main purpose. I hoped to help correct the notion that serious messages can’t be conveyed with humor, n that no seasoned writers out there are writing books that mock the PC Woke Cult. JIHAD BUBBA mocks diversity, Bidenomics, Zimbabwe, George Floyd, PC police, gays, gun control, pronouns, n the legions of purple-haired teenage girls who run today’s U.S., either literally teenage, or ostensibly grown women but who still have little girl minds.
If you like JIHAD BUBBA, you might want to read my previous 3 books that mock Wokeness. Here are their titles below, all described on this site, n which can be purchased on Amazon. Equus is not (yet) banned by Amazon, tho Equus has been banned by a number of smaller websites.
Adventures of Maggie, the Radiated Lesbian Nun:
Book 1: Judge Crater Takes a Powder
Book 2: Cross-Dressers From Pluto
Book 3: The Warriors
I will be running more book ads soon. I maintain hope that there are at least a few literates lurking among the hordes of meme-drooling Xers who have difficulty reading 3-syllable words.
Running an X ad for Jihad Bubba
This is the first ad I have run with X.
“Hardworking Bubba Gray is obsolete in a future U.S. of Rainbowstan where ‘pre-citizens’ surge the borders, purple-haired teens make all the rules, and smart-alec robots crash their taxis—till one day he goes full ‘jihad’, with hilarious results.”
I had to change my usual description of the book from ‘with unpredictable consequences’ to ‘hilarious results’ in an attempt to avoid the algorithm / moderators. The issue is that any title that has ‘JIHAD’ in it is automatically suspect with every publisher n platform. I consider myself fortunate that XTwit has NOT rejected Jihad Bubba or Equus. So far, at least! Most places refuse outright to accept JIHAD in any book title. See my posts here on EquusPublishing on how Arktos tried to publish Jihad Bubba but was deplatformed by Ingram, which panicked Arktos into canceling me the author to halt the damage–yes, Arktos cancels authors for commercial reasons just like any other publisher eyeing its bottom line! And Arktos was the second publisher. The first wanted to publish JB, but declined due, as always, to the dangerous word ‘JIHAD’ in the title. No one wants their offices firebombed by mad mullahs, including both Arktos n Ingram. (Yours Truly doesn’t have an office so I’m not particularly concerned.)
X ads IMO are much cheaper per impression than FB ads. In fact, I would say the ratio is about 100 to 1. IOW, you get a much larger exposure than you would if you ran your ad with FB. I also found that one can select the target audience more carefully with X. The only genuine issue I see with running an ad for a book on XTwit is that most X members are functionally illiterate. Even tho I wrote JB at about a 7th grade level, it’s my experience that few Americans, n fewer X members, can actually read it. That’s why only visual memes work on X n textual snippets accomplish nothing.
The response for JB has actually been rather good, considering the small price I am paying of $100 per day for 200,000 impressions daily. That’s a bargain anywhere. I don’t know if any books are actually selling (remember XTwits can’t read) but Equus Publishing is definitely being noticed by the right crowd, speaking politically that is since I know I’ll never sell a book to an illiterate.

Regarding the many science fiction writers that I have in my collection of hardbacks and paperbacks, I have several of their works that are rare editions. The writers include Edgar Rice Burroughs, H.P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, and many more. See my latest postings of rare books below. My purpose, as mentioned before, is not to flip them by offering them for sale, but to simply let others know what is in my library.

Conan – Red Nails, by Robert E. Howard, edited by Karl Edward Wagner.
BTW, I once interviewed Glenn Lord at his home back around 1992-3 if memory serves. During our conversation he mentioned that when he acquired the rights to REH’s works no one else had showed any interest in doing this, so I gathered from Glenn Lord’s comments that the rights did not cost him much, if anything. Some years after that, when REH had become much more famous and everyone knew that Glenn Lord possessed all the rights, a publisher contacted him and sent him an unsolicited check for $75,000 just to acquire any rights at all to publish some of REH’s works. Mr. Lord, not having solicited the publisher, and not having promised the publisher anything whatsoever or signed anything, and actually not free at the time to transfer any REH rights, Mr. Lord simply kept the check! Nice work if you can get it, I suppose. I heard this direct from Glenn Lord himself at his home. I had approached him with the idea of his writing a review of one of my own novels, I think my Maalstrom novel, but he explained that he was really too busy to read it. Glenn Lord was very friendly and of good humor and I very much enjoyed my brief visit with him. I never saw him again.
