I’ve posted The lessons of Amazonfail at Humans At Work.
Thanks to everyone who’s been joining the Great Online Conversation, sharing information, and taking action. Although my books haven’t been de-ranked, Nicola’s have, and that hurts me emotionally and economically. I’m looking forward to Amazon honoring their stated intention to restore the de-ranked books. And I hope the attention, the demands for reparation, and the uproar will not stop until those books — all of them — are restored.
Hi, Kelley.
I thought your “lessons of Amazonfail” blog post was great and I linked to it in my latest blog post:

Though Amazon pusillanimously blamed it on the cataloguing drones, Nicola and 57,000+ others are back in the rankings where they belong. I hope it will not happen again.
