This has arrived from Amazon:

"Thank you for being part of KDP Select... Your enrolled book(s) noted below is scheduled to expire soon..."

Expire? What? As books cease to belong to Amazon's Select programme, the Official Amazon Executioner puts a hand on the the books shoulder as it tries to slip out of the Select Door, brings it gently to its knees on the rubber mat to catch the blood, and pops it one in the back of the neck with the Amazon Official Executioner Handgun Mk XIII, Lubyanke style?

Ouch!

Patricia (patriciasierra) | 2388 comments They're just telling you to get out now before the new 90-day term starts if you're wanting to leave the Select program. If I recall correctly, this first deadline is the only time they'll give you a reminder. After this it's after you to keep track. They'll keep auto-renewing your participation after this one-time reminder.

It's a humorous piece playing on the Amazon illiteracy, Sierra. It is the enrolment in Select that expires, not the book that expires.

Andre, I knew what your piece is/was.

Katie: that's a priceless comment.
