So, how is everyone settling in?

For me personally this has been the freest I have felt for a long damn time. How has everyone else been holding up? Does anyone need to get everything off of their chest? Feel free, I have big shoulders.

A (probably not so) brief foray into my mind...

I've been tossing this around in my head since Saturday morning when I woke up and I was one of the unfortunate 21 who had no prior warning that my thoughts on books/authors/bullshit, however you want to term it, had been summarily deleted.

 

It took 3 readings of that godsdamned email before I could form a coherent enough thought to utter "Daufq is this horse shit?"

 

 

I was emptied, I was aching. I felt betrayed, wholly and completely. What had I done wrong, really when you think about it? I'd refused to support author for reacting negatively to a readers opinion, I had shelved books of authors who had dubbed me a bully for not taking shit without speaking my mind, I had written a note to my self in a review space that I would not support a convicted paedophile by buying his childrens book (that's The Secret of Castle Cant btw).

 

I showed it to my partner and she was as flabbergasted as I. We took to the feedback threads and found some bullshit about policy changes that were tantamount to censorship and I'm not going to go into that, because about a thousand other people have already said all that needs to be said, it's bullshit pure and simple. I don't know whether this is Amazons doing, or Douthit, Bryant, Carufel, Dismuke... (Throw a rock you'll hit a self published author who feels wronged by everybody) who have finally worn down the staff with fear of action of some form or other, and quite frankly I don't give a flying fuck either.
