**HELP SAVE THE INDIE AUTHORS**




Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo are trying to drop Indie Authors for content (ie. rape, abuse).

A LOT of the authors we read and REALLY TRULY ENJOY are Indie and self-published.

Take a minute to sign this. Writing is a form of creative expression, and how dare anyone try to censor that. Giving someone a heads up on the themes involved in the books would be a better idea, NOT removing them completely. Let people judge for themselves what they want to read. 

I'm sorry, this makes me so mad. This is like telling someone they aren't allowed to use red paint, when their painting needs red paint to make sense. Trying to censor the creative 
abilities of someone is just NOT right.

    Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Kobo should not be censoring authors. Customers should be able to make an informed decision based on the authors, synopsis of the book. I have seen titles that also have rating of 18 +.
