It took a bit of doing and undoing, but for the sake of just getting the story into people's hand without outside intervention, I took the easy route.
And was pleasantly surprised. My memory of Amazon's publishing system isn't a fond one, but when I got back behind the secnes and started looking around, everything else fell into place. They don't force the internal material anymore. Formatting and other stuff can be kept in the hands of the author (ISBN placement is typical, you can't touch that of all things, but who does I suppose).
So those links are coming. Without books sitting in a warehouse and Amazons POD system, I suppose I should be glad. It was a last ditch effort. Next I need to figure out the Amazon Author Central Stuff. It looked straight forward until I actually started working on it. God forbid you wrote a children's book with pictures, because you can't advertise the art.
I'll set up links to the paperbacks soon.
I'll be shorter in the delays.
