The gist is this:
ARe is closing its doors as of midnight, December 31st. If you're an author who is owed money, ARe is only going to pay 10¢ for every dollar owed. If you're a reader, your library will no longer be available to download after December 31. Readers are also reporting that their ARe "eBook Bucks" are frozen and unusable.
This is not a drill. Get your content out of there now.
As a consequence, I've thrown all my books back into Kindle Unlimited (as ARe was my only other reliable source for royalties).
Fuck you, 2016. Fuck you straight to hell.
Hello!
Even if I don’t have Kindle Unlimited, but I still have the Kindle App on my computer, I can still buy your novels through Amazon like a regular online e-book purchase, yes?
Sorry, but I’m not that good with technology if it’s not Facebook, Hotmail, or Microsoft Word. :(
Hope you see this!
Thank you, and Happy New Year from Toronto!
