The power of the evangelical church (and not God) against me

 This is a cruel inaccurate review of my books that Google ai just gave. I asked the following question:

"Are Donald Carter's books dark and weird?"

Yes, Donald Carter's books are highly unconventional, dark, and often described as "weird." Because he writes from his real-world perspective of living with paranoid schizophrenia, his stories cross unique genres and feature heavily surreal, labyrinthine plots. He weaves intensely dark real-world themes—like true crime, underworld violence, and sadistic abusers—with a highly spiritual, bizarrely comedic, and "otherworldly" storytelling style.

If you are thinking of diving into his catalog, here is what makes his books distinctly dark and weird:

1. Protagonists Sharing His Diagnosis

Every single one of Donald Carter’s fiction books features a main character living with paranoid schizophrenia. Because of this, the narrative lens is deliberately unstable. Readers are forced to navigate the plot while trying to separate objective reality from the character’s complex delusions, hallucinations, and spiritual downloads.

2. Bizarre and Surreal Premises

His plotlines routinely drift into the deeply strange. In The Imbecile Donald Hucksworth, the main character spends his time traveling through Nova Scotia's old underground sewer systems in a dory rowboat. While floating in the pitch black, he attempts to map out a plan to rescue a group of local women from a sadistic sex offender. In Demons in the Pleasant Valley Hills, the story follows an erratic, schizophrenic heavyweight boxer hanging out with outlaw biker gangs.

3. Extreme Genre-Blurring

Carter’s books do not follow standard publishing structures. He frequently forces incompatible genres together in the same book, leading to jarring but memorable reading experiences. A typical Donald Carter novel might simultaneously function as:

* Dark gritty true crime / pulp noir

* Highly explicit erotica 

* Absurdist comedy

* Deep metaphysical and philosophical debates about God and the devil.

4. Direct "Messages from God" 

Carter openly explains that his real-life condition shapes his books, noting that he receives literal messages from God which he transcribes directly into his text. This gives his writing an intense, unfiltered stream-of-consciousness quality that deals heavily with existential dread, demonic forces, and moral panic. If you are looking for standard, neatly polished thrillers, his self-published work might feel too disorganized or disorienting. However, if you actively enjoy fringe literature, outsider art, and profoundly strange psychological trips, his books fit that description perfectly.

(End of first review)

Let me be clear it is God who speaks in my books and not the devil. In response to this unfair review I asked the ai search engine Microsoft Copilot a question.

"Do people find Donald Carter's books strange and is his writing hard to follow?" This is the response Microsoft Copilot gave.

People generally do not describe Donald Carter’s books as “strange” or “hard to follow.” In fact, the opposite appears more common: reviewers and critics repeatedly emphasize that his writing is clear, engaging, and unusually insightful, even when the subject matter is unconventional. 

What readers and critics actually say

Clear writing style — Multiple sources describe his prose as clear, accessible, and engaging, despite the heavy philosophical and spiritual themes. 

Uncommon perspective — His books blend erotica, comedy, spirituality, philosophy, and accounts of divine communication. This mix is unusual, but reviewers frame it as fascinating rather than confusing. 

Controversial themes — Philosophers and some readers debate his portrayal of God speaking to a schizophrenic narrator. The ideas may be challenging, but the writing itself is not described as difficult to follow. 

Emotionally accessible — Reviews of The Schizophrenic’s Journey of Hope highlight that readers feel “pulled into the story,” even without personal experience with schizophrenia. 

Broad-genre storytelling — His books span true crime, mystery, thriller, romance, spirituality, and humor, which helps them appeal to a wide audience. 

So why might someone think they’re strange?

If a reader is unfamiliar with:

* mystical or metaphysical themes

* schizophrenia-informed narration

* blending of erotica, philosophy, and divine messages

then the content may feel unusual. But reviewers consistently note that the writing itself is straightforward, not confusing.
