My latest book released 12 hours ago on Amazon AU site.

And when I checked my emails a short time ago, having just gotten up, there was a new release email there for it. It was sent 7.5 hours after actual release, from a pre-order.

But...

Still...

Lucky dog. Nothing from the Zon for my June release, nothing from the Zon for my August release and so far nothing from last week's release :evil2:

It could be just an Aus store thing, or maybe they just changed policy again.

The last email feedback request I received, I hit them in the eyes with sending me what I considered spam, instead of sending the follower notifications on day 1 which I actually wanted.

Maybe someone listened?  :shrug

Suddenly, yesterday, six days after my latest release, my Amazon sales shot up without explanation. I didn't see an email from them, though I follow myself, so who knows...
