Amazon out of stock-at Christmas? What?

Sad to say that Amazon has done it again. Smaller than larger traditional presses and otherwise still get no help from Amazon whatsoever. Here we at Christmas time, the time of the season us authors look forward to when it comes to selling books and what do you know, Amazon is out of stock of Forever Richard!

Nope. There's no reason whatsoever why they sould be. They can get the book right away and with no problem. Why would they ever show it as out of stock then especially at Christmas? Because I don't have one of the larger publishers and therefore they don't care. The good news is Forever Richard is now selling through Amazon's affiliate sellers. The downside to that would be that these sales aren't reflected in the rankings thus making the ranking system here on Amazon seem a bit bogus.

Ah Amazon. Us smaller published authors traditional an otherwise can always count on you!

Good grief.
