So if you go to order Never Ceese the paperback which is now being distributed through S D Enterprise (me) via LSI (a POD printer) you will see this: Only 1 left in stock.
I know, right? Makes no sense. NOBODY STOCKS POD published books. You did hear me didn't you? And Never Ceese is non-returnable at that and they sure as heck-fire won't order those kind of POD printed books UNLESS there is already an order for them.
Does it help me, the author, when Amazon puts something so stupid on the ad for my book? No. Not really. Makes it look like they treat POD printed, Self-pubbed authors the same as all other traditionally published authors when they don't. Amazon doesn't have any of my books in stock to even have one left and neither do any of the other retailers who say they have 100 copies etc . . .
POD printed books are only EVER ordered when an order is placed ESPECIALLY ones that are made non-returnable by the author to avoid having their work stolen by distributors. ;)
Just wanted to let you know that in case you thought I was "selling out" at Amazon. They're just stupid, that's all and once again giving out false information for reasons I can't even fathom. Just don't want anyone thinking they treat self-pubbed authors any differently than they ever did. *Sue snickers to self.* One book in stock. Really? Gee you think I'd know about that since I know EXACTLY how many books have been sold. Idiots!
