Are there any good self-published books besides Empress Theresa (a new classic that Mr Boutin has labored over for decades)?
Self-Published Literature

Thomas Watson
Never seen that cover design before.
Grayson Cox
Must be 2nd Edition
Xavier Fisher
I think he redrew it after all the criticism. Apparently someone said she had dead eyes, and you can see Boutin changed her eyes in the new cover.
Dominic King
Fill me in on the meme what is this shit
Elijah Hall
As a connoisseur, I prefer my first-edition copy. I have gifted some newer copies to my nieces and nephews, however. I think it’s important for them to see that it’s possible to have such an exciting and dramatic story with a good heroine who does not swear or have sex. With luck, they will grow up knowing that if they follow Theresa’s example, they can win the approval of everyone from Prime Minister Tony Blair to China.
Gavin Nelson
Yeah totally. I was lucky enough to get my 1st Ed signed when he was in Seattle.
Leo Rodriguez
>Doesn’t know about Empress Theresa
I bet you love swearing, alcohol and sex.
Lucas Morgan
Benjamin Scott
Here’s a suggestion.
Nolan Jackson
Some retard published his magnum opus on amazon. Lo and behold, it was shit, and when people said so, the fuckwith defended it to the death, issuing death threats to critics and all the usual jazz.
Elijah Wright
Great job sucking all the magic out of it.
Brandon Watson
As for the subject concerning Empress Theresa and the author, Norman Boutin, he posted on an Israeli message board about what they might think of some of his ideas. The members of that forum apparently disliked it, calling him out on anti-Semitic implications of removing the people of Israel from their namesake homeland.

Can’t you guys use some public domain artwork or scans of really old artwork, and do a better editing job? Even the typography looks shit. Couldn’t you use a renaissance painting or some shit and put plain type in black or white for the title and by-line? Good lord, it is hurting my eyes.
Zachary Perez
Now, you have got me wondering the same thing. Is it legal in America, or elsewhere, to merely use a public domain photograph of a centuries old painting for one's independently published book and its cover? What about using old 18th and 19th century pictures contained within books, or woodcut engravings? I am a fan of the old Sherlock Holmes art style and similar styles in use during the late 19th and very early 20th century.
Connor Thomas
Demon Princess Magical Chaos is gud
Kevin Peterson
You can use public domain however you wish in the US. For example, you could publish a straight copy of Moby-Dick and make profit, though, many people already do this.
Nathaniel Smith
What about with art though? I feel like a cover with renaissance art and plain typography would look 1000 times better than the OP.
Henry Collins
The book is about Theresa, so it needs a picture of Theresa on the cover. People will be misled or confused if the book comes with some random Renaissance painting of a tree or some bitch on a clam on it.
Justin Rogers
non-fiction yes
Leo Collins
Art is the same. Public domain means it's owned by the public. There's no person or organization you can ask permission to use the work as everyone is in essence the co-owner. It's ours.
Nolan Perry
Go to bed, Norman.
Lincoln Bailey
Found this absolute gem of a series a while ago and it has been an in-joke with me and my friends ever since
Thought I would finally stop by and share it with y'all
It's got:
>Incestuous pedophile murder-rapists
>Forced romance
>Cliches out the wazoo
>Grammatical/spelling errors galore
>Structural issues
>Poor character development
>Poorly researched
>Boomer hatred of technology and social media
>Victim blaming
And so...much...more...
Lucas Scott
Unironically a great cover.
Ian Myers
>The man himself appears to defend his creation
Parker Gomez
Yes, dumbass. Sorry for the insult, but that's a really obvious question. If it's the public domain, it's equivalent to something you created, but you can't copyright.
Charles Gomez
I realize it was a very foolish seeming question to ask, but sometimes with laws nowadays, I feel paranoid about what is permitted and what is not. At this point, I would not mind reading an actual legal document with these elements contained within. I do not want to suddenly find out that I have been fined a large sum of money over a copyright problem.
Oliver James
>>Forced romance
do you mean rape?

>The term “public domain” refers to creative materials that are not protected by intellectual property laws such as copyright, trademark, or patent laws. The public owns these works, not an individual author or artist. Anyone can use a public domain work without obtaining permission, but no one can ever own it.
This seems pretty exhaustive. As a good rule of thumb, anything work prior to 1923 is free game, but not certain, copyrighted versions of those works, like a contemporary translation, or a photograph of a public domain work.
Ian Wright
Actually, if you want rape, you'll have to go for the 2nd book, which also has a serial killer with ED
What I meant was two characters that have no reason being interested in each other falling madly in love, because plot or something
Also of note for the series as a whole:
>Plenty of child abuse
>Bland dialogue
>The audiobook versions are hilarious
Gavin Campbell
the eyes are still dead.
Brody Sanders
fuck... I actually like the cover besides the girl in the front cover their is some aesthetic to it
Colton Richardson
pic related
it was really explosive
Jaxon Martin
I laughed
John Wright
What do you mean by explosive, like his arguments against the Industrual Revolution escalated quickly?
Jason Carter
He needs to get on that anime design for his novels like Yud did
Mason Martin
It's outsider art.
Lucas Taylor
Not to self-promote, but anyone who enjoys "Empress Theresa" should definitely check out "The Eye of Argon."
Brandon Brooks
I kinda wish Lovecraft wrote in the style of The Eye of Argon
it's amazing at confusing the reader and creating images that defy human understanding
Carson Torres
Irene Iddesleigh is the literary Eye of Argon. Huxley, Lewis, Twain are among those who have enjoyed the beauty of Ros's writing.
Daniel Foster
Seeing how naïvely he starts off, and then how overly zealous and brash about his work he gets is funny, but I wonder what it must be like to know this guy in real life? Does he wear it openly, so to speak, that he is the book author behind Empress Theresa? How much of his personal home life is defined by that book, as opposed to when he is writing and on the internet, doing all of these interactions with the naysayers, and perhaps a few fans? The Israelis on that forum seemed to be mostly offended, taking his book idea as an affront to their existence and spiritual connection with the land of Israel, promised by God to them.
Jonathan Brown
If only there were a book which contained none of these things.
Robert Lee
