Single Breasted Outfits or Why I Can't Remove My Amazon Links

(Huge trivia points to all readers who catch the significance of the first part of the subject heading.)

As everyone knows, Amazon is currently taking heat for being slow to remove a Kindle handbook on how to rape children (after first refusing to take it off). I would love to remove the Amazon links from my web site, but I can't because I'm afraid to lose sales. Wait. No. That's not the reason I can't remove the links. I can't remove them because I took them off in January when Amazon delisted all MacMillan books for a week or so as a negotiating technique. And I left them off. They're gone for good. Authors -- follow your conscience. But bear in mind that Amazon only accounts for about 5% of book sales nationwide. Shoppers -- there are plenty of other places to buy anything at a discount. And there are plenty of local merchants who would appreciate some of your business.
