Nor does Amazon have the right to violate a contract they've entered into. They agreed to sell my books without problem for years; suddenly there's a problem and they dump them, suggesting I'm nothing but a pornographer? Or that I'm somehow also promoting child molesatation (something I despise no matter what the sexual orientation of the molester)? My books do NOT have underaged sex in them.

Also -- they're still carrying two other titles of mine, both of which also have some very graphic sex in them. And other works they carry have titles that are just as provocative. The hypocrisy is too obvious for words.

Amazon has the right to do what they want, sure; but I also have the right to scream about them trashing my work without even talking to me, first.
