Yesterday, my publisher, Renaissance Press, emailed us to say they were experiencing a problem with Kindle direct publishing (KDP), so ebook titles may be temporarily unavailable on Amazon.

This is upsetting for all of the Renaissance authors. Unless you’re a major league writer published by a company that can — and will — sling a lot of cash at marketing your books, it can be pretty tough to get your name out there. When you operate in more of a niche market, having tools that can promote wider distribution is important. Thus, this latest snafu has everyone affected in kind of a low mood.

Unfortunately for me, Black Wolf: The Binding of Loki was only available on Amazon through the KDP, so it is currently unavailable on that site in any format. However, it is still available in paperback and ebook formats from both Renaissance Press and Chapters Indigo.

This issue should be resolved shortly. In the meantime, consider supporting writers, publishers, and bookstores directly. Bezos will be A-O-fucking-kay without you for a few days, but if not, he can go cry into his space cowboy hat.
