There is one thing there as well, because she seems to imply that the unnamed publisher has a problem with her using Amazon, but the first of the short stories collection was e-published before the contract was signed.
In reality, Kiana Davenport published her first novel in 1994 and has a number of prizes under her belt. Before her first novel she was a Fiction Fellow at the Bunting Institute at Harvard-Radcliffe. Why would a publisher think that she can only sell 2500 copies? Why would she only get 25%?
