we've been dealing with Amazon Kindle KDP requesting censoring of our
publishing and just out and out banning. They call that "blocking." My
gay novella and my compiled short stories were the first.
There are more now.
Now,
Amazon and Kindle is in hysterics [see
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-24491723] and blocking stuff
they've contractually sold for over five years; but, now say they are
too naughty and break their rules.
Like they didn't notice the words [slut, whore, or school] on the covers before, years ago.
High
schoolers, who are of age and willing and enjoying themselves, and
exploring their fears and joys, are not abuse victims, incense victims.

Why is sex always on the
hysterics and cutting block but not violence? Maybe if characters
bloody skinned each other for epidermis suits, instead of enjoyed the
fuck that would be fine.
Guess, it's just Amazon Kindle KDP trying to be all things but not "the biggest bookstore in the world."
The
Cleveland Public Library [www.cpl.org] is never this reactive or
squeamish. Some of my best research has come from their shelves.
Who else has been spanked, without the fun?
