He's never been on their list of authors and they've never advertised any of his books. As with his NYT's op-ed he pays a fee for them to print some books. This way he can pretend to be an author and even though he never makes a profit it doesn't bother him because it's Niki's money anyway.
The Tor website has a page which details the submission process for hopeful authors, and on this page is a very insightful paragraph.
Lee Harris, Carl Engle-Laird, and Ruoxi Chen all actively request submissions from writers from underrepresented populations. This includes, but is not limited to, writers of any race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, nationality, class and physical or mental ability. We believe that good science fiction and fantasy reflects the incredible diversity and potential of the human species, and hope our catalog will reflect that.
I like to drink a lot of beer so I went to the Cryogenic Quantum Freezer where we keep the beer on the spaceship and got myself a few beers. I proceeded to drink one of the beers figuring I'd save the other beers for later when I wanted another beer.

This is great.
I tried: 'patrick tomlinson' 'patrick s tomlinson' 'starship repo' 'gate crashers'
absolutely zero on every search.

They've wiped all reference to the Milwaukee Madman

Also he's fat.

Way to be a bummer, dude. :(

Hush, child. You're irrelevant.

Hey, read the edit to my last comment. Whatcha think?
1 fatty-patty-2 2019-09-14
It's just their blog and look at the name of the chubby child that wrote it. Truly pathetic.

I forgot about this. Fucking beautiful.

This is one of the funniest things Ive ever seen. Holy shit, Im absolutely crying right now.
1 BloviatingUdders 2019-09-14
Damn, I was hoping he was writing under a pen name like Patrick S. Hefner.

Patrick was essentially a diversity hire.

"Yeah, we got a guy here...Patrick S. Tomlinson. He's fat and retarded, aaaannd he might also be gay..."
"That's a trifecta diversity hire! Offer him $12,000 then publish whatever horse shit he's written."

Tor publishing releases Fatrick at the same time his wife is leaving him.

Oopsie doodles!

Joe and Patrick do have something in common... cosplaying is the closest they'll ever get to being actual artists
1 Single_Action_Army 2019-09-14
They both plagiarize all their shit... poorly

He really does use a silly amount of words, it's like a 13yr old who's been told they must write 5000 words.
1 like_tears_1n_rain 2019-09-14
How will he be able to support his daughter now?
1 SuperToes845 2019-09-14
As if he gave a fuck about her.
1 Mintwa 2019-09-14
He was never on that list sadly. Just check internet archive of it.
1 ThomasRPatlinson 2019-09-14
This is kind of funny. You as one of his more noticable detractors correct me factually on a dismissive statement against him.
So much for lying trolls. u/patrickstomlinson, comment?

You've been exposed, tub-lard. What do you have to say for yourself? /u/patrickstomlinson
