I will stay right out of the gate that Nicolas Cole makes my teeth itch. As someone who has a degree in English, has taught creative writing, and has been published in a dozen media platforms, his writing has the substance of paint water. He’s also an asshole and completely full of himself. His writing is the equivalent of autotune country pop bullshit.

That said, the fact that these two guys are arguing over plagiarism, is delightful. Both of them sell programs that are a lather rinse repeat of how to regurgitate the same nonsense to the same group of people and pray it makes you rich.

The irony of it is that Kieran Drew holds any space in this conversation. He ended up in my Twitter feed, and I asked him what he wrote. He danced around the subject for several tweets when he informed me that the only thing he has ever written or tweets. Tweeting is not writing. It boggles my mind that any human being would handover money to this man in the hopes of becoming a writer.

That was a whole damn rant. But really, I am sick of these to taking up space and appalled at the amount of money that they have taken from people who think that they are getting actual training and how to be a writer when they’re getting formulate a crap. Writer is looking to learn how to truly write deserve better.
