> Amazon's anti-scam measure yanked all his books off sale -- right after he'd released them and run a marketing campaign

That part probably seems far more relevant as an Amazon customer than it does to me as an Amazon employee. It'd be like saying "I got a parking ticket the day after I filed my tax return."

It's a shitty coincidence, but only that.

It also shows how if you're submitting your work to an algorithm, following the submission guidelines is a must.

If it was submitted according to the publishing guidelines, then removed, we could have this conversation.
