Book 6 - The General of Izril e-book delays. (Amazon)
It's me. I'm still on break and it's going well. Mostly just rest. Mostly.
I'm writing you all briefly to let you know why Book 6 has not come out yet as an e-book. I have been attempting to publish it since the audiobook was launched...last month. Normally you want to time the two to appear together, but I have not been able to publish Book 6 for three weeks.
This is mainly because I've been arguing with Amazon's kindle content review process. Because The Wandering Inn is online, I need to prove I'm me in order to publish the e-book to prevent fraud. Which is great to protect authors, but unfortunately I can't prove I'm pirateaba to Amazon.
I have sent legal documents, posted proof on Twitter, and done everything I can, but it's been three weeks of delays. Which is odd because I've posted the last five books with less hassle, but sometimes things change.
I'm going to keep trying, and I may look into other ways to publish. Apologies for the delay if anyone is waiting on it.

Honestly, what I would like to do is pay for unprotected EPub versions and have you get most if not all of what I pay. I don't think either of those things happen with Amazon. If you find the time and energy to publish elsewhere I have a feeling you may find a different audience. Amazon is easy for readers but ... it's Amazon. So my compromise is to read it in the app of my choice and support you over here instead.
Yea! Got mine.

Sounds like Amazon heard the rumor that Pirateaba is an AI.
Just send Relc to go talk to them...
Could post some sort of proof on the website and link it to them? An unlisted link so the masses don't see it but evidence on the site that you are you might help?
Could always make that your legal name.
Are you sure you are pirate?
Perhaps Pirateaba.
Speaking of the ebooks/audiobooks VS the online publication does anyone know anybody that’s keeping track of material that has been edited out of the Amazon releases (if any)?

Just because they post on Pirates Paetron as Pirate, am I supposed to believe they are Pirateaba?
Thanks for the update, and I'm sorry to hear that you are going through such a hassle. :/
Not giving anyone idea's but I just filed a CSR request with Amazon asking what the delay is with my favorite book series, the support agent said he filed a report of wanting it on Kindle version.
Will they accept trolling the readers as proof of identity?
But how can we be sure this is the real pirateaba 🤔
Thank you. I don't mind the wait.
Last time I heard about this problem, the solution I saw was to add a message to your website along the lines of "Hey Amazon, yes that's me trying to publish the book."
Been wondering why it isn't up so I can order it.
Sounds like something an impostor would say
We love you!
