Frequently Asked Questions

Amazon do not allow independent publishers to list their books for free on their site under normal circumstances. The minimum we are allowed to set is $0.99. The books that are free on Amazon have been price matched by Amazon themselves to equal the price found on other sites. We cannot control this, we can only ask Amazon to price match when appropriate and hope they will do so. Sometimes they remove price matching without warning and we have to request it again, which we aim to do as quickly as possible, but it is up to Amazon’s discretion, so we cannot guarantee the results.

Firstly, KDP Select only offers 5 days out of 90 free, so the book is not available free, permanently. Secondly, to enroll a book in KDP Select that book must only be available on Amazon. We feel this is anti-competitive and hence do not wish to use this service. We are very grateful to Amazon for providing such a huge publishing platform, but we do not agree with all of their techniques.

Unfortunately, Amazon does not allow some adult titles to appear in general searches. We are sorry, there is nothing we can do about this. If you find another book by the same author and then click the author link all books will then be listed.

We primarily upload our books to three services:

• Amazon KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing)
• Google Play
• Draft2Digital (was Smashwords)

All the other platforms are provided to us by Draft2Digital, who have an eBook distribution program as well as an eBook selling platform. This saves us a great deal of time and gives us what we believe is good coverage for our reader base.
