sadly amazon remains vital to a book’s success

so imagine my surprise to look at my book listing and see it not only under a HP ad (holy shit) but the digital and paperback versions are GONE

AS ARE 78 CORRESPONDING 5-STAR REVIEWS

important to add it doesn’t come up in searches either, it just isn’t there

and if you add my name to the search, all you get is the Audible page (which as they’re owned by amazon I suspect will disappear soon too)

SURE seems like they’re intentionally burying it

if you’ve not read the replies this is even worse than i thought

it doesn’t turn up in searches

and people’s purchased digital copies are DISAPPEARING FROM THEIR DEVICES

update from my publisher: they say this has happened to all their books (for reasons I wasn’t told) and it would “all be fixed” in a couple days?

Does that mean people with digital copies that lost them will get them restored?! what the heck is going on

I guess we wait and hope

to everyone who lost their digital copies from whatever this is, I’m so sorry

If they don’t reappear when this is “fixed” let me know and i will send you a pdf copy

if you’re following this unresolved saga

my manager ordered a hardcover from amazon yesterday, just to see what would happen (since paperbacks and digital were removed)

this is the email they sent him when it shipped

hidden for privacy? of an item he BOUGHT?!

THEY CENSORED THE TITLE AND COVER
