"I have been forced to make this decision based on lack of finances - hormonal females and bitching."
I don't know how accurate this is, but apparently this is what the CEO of Mardi Gras Publishing had to say in response to some of the comments that have been floating around, re the closure of MGP. (Bare in mind this info was posted by an anonymous source, so cannot be taken as gospel.)
"In response to this post - I went MIA due to computer issues. And have now leased a system I can not afford.
This previous post is NOT from all the editors, authors and staff. Only a small group.
And the satinrougepress. com web site had been there since mardi gras opened because it was originally surpose to be the satin rouge line location.
It amazes me how people continue to post non-accurate information.
Mardi Gras Publishing is officially closing September 1, 2007 I have been forced to make this decision based on lack of finances - hormonal females and bitching.
I'm tired of it and refuse to listen to it any more. I gave this company 110% - quit my job and have received nothing but aggravation since. I have NO intention of opening another company, have you lost your mind?!
Teresa"
Hmmm... Hormonal females eh? Nice...
Incidentally, Teresa, if these aren't your words, just let me know, and I'll amend accordingly. Although judging from this report of your past unethical behaviour, I have a feeling that the words were indeed yours.
