Prove me wrong

 I’ve been told for years that my mouth is the problem.

Not my books.

Not my writing.

Me.

Apparently when I open my mouth online, I alienate people.

Apparently the entire horror community is against me.

Okay. You win.

I’ll make you a promise that should absolutely thrill some of you:

I will never post on social media again.

No more commentary.

No more posts.

No more marketing rants or “abrasive personality” to blame.

Hell, I’ll delete every account I’ve got—gladly.

But here’s your part of the deal:

SELL THE BOOKS.

That’s it.

My books are consistently praised by horror champions like Red Central.

They pull in five-star reviews.

We all know the writing’s not the issue—you’ve said it yourself.

So if I’m the obstacle, I’ll remove myself from the equation.

No more author presence.

No more Jake.

But if that’s what’s been holding everything back?

Then step up.

Attention publishers.

Attention book marketers.

Attention every horror gatekeeper and online hero who thinks they know what sells:

You run the show.

Prove me wrong.

Make the books sell,

and I’ll stay the fuck offline forever.

Because maybe I am the problem.

But if the problem’s gone and nothing changes?

Then maybe—just maybe—

you’re the ones who can’t handle the truth.

Signed,

The Ghost You Wanted
