This forum thread's transition from Smashwords removing incest material to Marines incinerating Aliens is truly remarkable.

And checking GR...it looks like a lot of the Warhammer 40.000 books have been a casualty of the Amazon debacle. I think I'll start working on fixing them when I get some free time. Series link :-( |

I think they are lumping bestiality with Space Marines having sex. Just with each other or also with Aliens, I am not sure. Anyway, I got some new ideas but I guess an biography about Woody Allen and his adopted daughter/wife won't fly. |

I've spent several hours volunteering on GR to help the indie authors although I'm not sure why I should. They should do their own marketing and promotion. |

I was also under the impression that the Adeptus Astartes (including most Chaos Space Marines, the Emperor's Children and Noise Marines nonwithstanding) didn't have sex after they became Scouts. |

I've done quite a bit and I really appreciate all your hard work! And I agree, Amazon was horrible. I'm sure the goal was to cripple the site - thank goodness that the volunteer librarians - like you - stepped in and did so much work. I'm sure they never expected that. I've read a few predictions that Amazon would try to buy GR due to it's social site being better than shelfari and to get it's hands on the GR rec engine. |

I do wish the self-pubbers and KDP authors would rescue their books. It is stunning how few have their own website and without them there isn't anything I can do. Amazon already owns the other 2 sites so probably want everyone to use them. |

I got an email from Smashwords today that (in part) talked about the recent problem with Paypal.

I'm trying to spend more money there whenever possible, especially since this PayPal/big money fiasco started. |

You've made an incredibly moronic and highly prejudiced statement. I say, back it up or shut it up. |
