In their very finite wisdom Amazon has taken it upon itself to make erotic romances disappear from their sales ranking. Meaning if you go to Amazon to look for my book, Try a Little Tenderness you won’t find it unless you very specifically look for my name under Books. If you look under All Departments you’ll only find Rock Star. How many people will go through that many hoops to find a book, they’ll just move on to another one. The crazy thing is, Try a Little Tenderness is not all that erotic. They’re doing this solely based on who my publisher is.
Entire imprints and publishers have been removed from the front page search engine. Why is it that I have a sneaking suspicion that this has something to do with the fact that erotic romance is selling gangbusters while the rest of publishing languishes far behind?
See the link at Dear Author. Then call or email these fucktards to tell them what fucktards they are. I want Bezos’s head on a platter for this.
