I don't agree with that.
Here is what I am saying, I think this was un-ethical and bordered on a con to the people who donated. I am not one of those people, but wish to discuss it, hopefully so other authors see it and make a decision that will not anger their ultimate customer.

If you want to write a book, sell it, etc go for it. If you want to take donations for writing that book, and it is paid for buy those donators, then don't pull it later.

Anyway, like I said, an Authors actions make me decide if I will support them or not, her actions are making it very much less likely I will ever support her financially. This has nothing about wanting a free book, but everything about how she behaves to readers.
