Riptide Publishing has broken all ties with Santino Hassell.
If you want the full story, the entire thing is laid out here on Tumblr: The Santino Hassell Debacle. This is a brief summary and I’m sad to say there are a lot of accusations against him, including deceit, abuse toward readers – specifically those in the LGTBQ community – and much more.
It seems there is also some question about whether or not he’s bi-sexual or if he said so to take advantage of the LGTBQ community. It was then revealed that he was married, and did not in fact suffer from liver cancer liked he previously claimed. He asked for readers to donate to help with said bills so he’d be able to continue writing. He presented himself as a bisexual single dad with serious health problems and massive medical bills. There are a good number of reviewers and authors who feel betrayed by Santino Hassell.įor those of you who aren’t plugged into the online romance community, let me sum up: MM author Santino Hassell cultivated an online persona and became friends with a goodly number of other authors and readers. Recently some allegations have come out about MM author Santino Hassell.
