Can Authors really Trust Word of Mouth for Advertising their work?
Copyright 2013 M7C.
You would probably think people would remember the important aspects of your book. Talk about the positive areas and not dwell on innuendo, make rumors about what they believe, or disrespect the author on the part of the characters in the story.
My characters in my books are NOT the author, unless specified. The only true-stories I have written are either personal biographies, science type books (Archaeology), or personal family heritage.
Word of Mouth is supposed to sell products not invent lies about people.
Malicious rumors ruin lives. They also ruin countries and their reputations, as well as stock markets.
So no, we cannot trust word of mouth. We can trust people know of something if we hear them gossip. (There is a place in the Abyss for people who do that).

The Dangers of improper Copyrights on books
The Dangers of Improper Copyrights on Books:
Copyright 2013 M7C., All rights reserved.
If you place a Copyright on a book and do not register it, you risk theft of its contents when offering it for review to strangers. I had this happen to me once. I offered my First Book (Eye of the Pharaoh, c.1990) to a Psychology Counselor at my University (CSU-EB), for review. She returned it but did not tell me she had secretly photocopied it. This was in 1991. Rumor has it that book became a best-seller, though the author (me) never was paid for it. If you are constantly being ripped off by people who can sell your book better than you, then I recommend registration in the LOC. Otherwise, change your marketing strategy.

Dr Zahi Hawass uses The Flawed Emerald to find the Crypt of Khufu
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/09/zahi-hawass-egypt-giza-pyramid-hidden-treasures_n_3404621.html
My book, The Flawed Emerald (C) Copyright 1995 MJ COSTA, was used by Dr. Zahi Hawass for his lecture about "finding the crypt of King Khufu of the Great Pyramid of Giza." He said the other chambers were made "to deceive thieves" (just as my book states). If he finds it my book would reach best selling status if people can remember that besides its stolen glory; if not, he is misled by a sci-fic novel no different than the Cayce predictions.
I tried contacting him about this, several times, but no reply. He is either one of my fans or just a PhD person with no imagination... Ironic though, he was once subject to the Curse of Tutankhamon for disturbing the remains of that Pharaoh; here I am, its Akh, writing about this....

What KheriHeb Priests do...
http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/egipto/egypt_bookdead/bodead-plate15.htm
Ancient Egyptian Priests who read the ritual book and directed its ceremonies were called: KheriHeb Priests. They were highly skilled and knowledgeable in Magic and Natural Physics. As a result of this, they often controlled or manipulated Natural Forces by willing them into action. One way of attaining Divine Energy was to "identify with the Gods" as by saying "I am (this God)" in the spell. Each God was in charge of a different act of Nature: Nut for outer space, Horus for the sky, Amon or Shu for the winds, Geb or Seb for the Earth / Earthquakes, Tefnut for rain and storms, Seth for chaos and revolutions and thunder/lightning, Ptah for creation or Chronokinesis, Thoth or Imhotep for healing, etc. It does not mean the KheriHeb Priest is the God in question, only for about 10 minutes at a time to absorb its energies for working Magical Effect. I am a KheriHeb Master; I started this occupation in the late 1980s. I started to control the wind in 1988, the rain in 1991, and earthquakes in 1989. I was classified top secret by 1993. LOL.

Chapter 21 wanes....
http://news.yahoo.com/egypt-proposes-mideast-free-destructive-weapons-201703484.html
Ha, someone must have reread my book and thought about Chapter 21 (WW3 - USA, USSR (Russia), and Iran). Though sending copies to the government probably helped. From Eye of the Pharaoh, c.1990 / The Flawed Emerald c.1995. The event may be delayed by 10 years, just as the Revolution of 2011 was delayed by ca.10 years after Sept. 11, 2001. A delay of 10 years is in the book.

AE Deity of the Week: Osiris
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osiris
Osiris (Asar, as in C_Asar, the form of Julius Caesar post-assassination and deification) is the AE God of the Afterlife in Duat (the Otherworld). He was once a Moon god, separate from the Solar worship of Ra; after decades of competition with the other doctrines, some priests unified the beliefs of the people by merging the stories in the doctrines, thus creating a family of the gods, whereby the gods were all related to one another, not separate (as in pre dynastic or early dynastic eras).
The story that Osiris is the Father of Horus or son of Geb and Nut or Ra, that he was killed by Set and dismembered, is modern (prior to the New Kingdom era). This story was created to unify the gods together. The original Osiris was the Nobleman Latracenal of Atlantis, the First Sovereign Prince of Light, who had 2 bronze female statues positioned behind his chair, like the positioning of Isis and Nephthys behind Osiris. The later stories has Osiris as the god of Agriculture, the Moon, and of regeneration or resurrection. In that story, "Eternal Life was only granted by him."
The stories about Jesus of Nazareth are taken from the later stories about Osiris. The Second Appearance of Christ is the same story as the Return of Osiris to establish his Eternal Kingdom on Earth (S7-UEIR). Christian rituals have their origins in Ancient Egypt: Foot washing ritual is a hieroglyph for Purity; Palm Sunday has Palm branches used to clean the floor in Egyptian Temples; Communion ritual is the Opening of the Mouth ritual, using the Eye of Horus as the body of sacrifice; though there are no anointing rituals mentioned in the Bible, so Jesus cannot call himself Christ, the "Anointed One" because that is misleading, as Egyptian Priests were anointed priests; anointing oils include sunscreen (Aloe Vera).

In The Flawed Emerald, I mentioned how the "destruction of Atlantis caused Egypt to rise from the sea..." As if Earthquakes can raise land formations. Then this happened ( see link ).
