Did Amazon Ban The Dominator Again?
Sigh.
Well… as my .99 sale ended and I flipped the price back to the regular price on Amazon, it sat in review for over two days before I noticed it was in a status of ‘blocked’ on my Amazon publishing dashboard.
I knew this was a possibility, but I’m still devastated. After all kinds of rework, recovering, expenses, and ad campaigns including a coveted BookBub deal that I’d been trying to get since…. forever, it might be that they refuse to re-publish. The error I got is cryptic and might have something to do with republishing a previously published book instead of being a content ban – I’m not sure – but I have a support ticket in and will update as I have answers.
This really bites considering the boost the BookBub deal got should have gotten plenty of more eyes on this story and gotten me some sales at the regular price when the deal was over because of sales rankings but alas… the only sure thing with things like this is that there are sure to be hiccups sometimes.
If you’d like to buy The Dominator right now, you can currently (as of the time I’m posting this) buy it from Amazon on paperback. In terms of the ebook edition, it’s now no longer an Amazon exclusive so you can get it at Apple Books, Google Play, Smashwords, Kobo, B&N, and some other online ebook retailers. In terms of subscription plans, it’s currently enrolled in Kobo Plus and I’ve made it available to libraries through Overdrive.

I’m going to also consider selling direct through either a PayPal/ BookFunnel link and/or via an Etsy store.
TTFN. I’ll keep you posted. <3
