15th March - The world can change in a short space of time!

It would seem that PayPal have had a change of heart? Smashwords CEO, Mark Coker has announced that he has been informed by the Directors of PayPal that they are now NOT going to seek to censor legal fiction. Here is an extract from his recent e-mail of March 13th.

Great news.

Yesterday afternoon I met with PayPal at their office in San Jose, where they informed me of their decision to modify their policies to allow legal fiction.

Effective last night, we rolled back the Smashwords Terms of Service to its pre-February 24 state.

It's been a tumultuous, nerve-wracking few weeks as we worked to protect the right of writers to write and publish legal fiction.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Smashwords authors, publishers and customers. You stood up and made your voice known.

There is a collective sigh of relief in the publishing world but many authors remain concerned that this is something that could happen again at any time.

It is you, the fiction buying public, who also need to make your feelings clear. The recent runaway success of the erotic novel ‘50 Shades of Grey’ and the extensive media coverage of same in the past few days may just have had something to do with the rethink by PayPal. In the end money talks loudest.

(All I need is for PayPal to rethink their freezing of my account last August.... )

29th February - An extra day to comment on PayPal and a NEW anthology call for stories.

The debate rages on, Gillian Colbert wrote most eloquently on the Rights being infringed and Wrongs being done by PayPal and others, read her words HERE.

Today sees a NEW call for quality erotic fiction from writers to contribute to an e-book and Audio anthology to be jointly published by smotp.com via Audible.co.uk and an e-book publisher to be announced (contracts pending) The Honey Trap: Sexy, Seductive Spies will be hot and thrilling. Read the call on the Authors Info pages.

28th February - Comment

This is a quotation put up on another author’s blog as a reaction to the escalating PayPal Censorship assault on erotica e-book publishers and writers. I have some sympathy with the sentiments!

First they came for the communists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew.

Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

25th February - Update

PayPal now decides what you can and can’t read.

PayPal have issued an ultimatum to the internet publishing industry that affects the world wide ebook reading community. PayPal have threatened to withdraw, and in some cases have already suspended their services to publishers who do not toe PayPal’s arbitrary Censorship guidelines. The world’s public no longer have the freedom to choose what they wish to read, PayPal have decided that for you.

1,000’s of titles are being withdrawn from sale by many, many publishers this weekend. Be aware that if you have a PayPal account and purchase ANYTHING that PayPal determine is unacceptable to them, they can, and will suspend your account without warning and confiscate all the funds therein. You have no right of appeal and no legal rights to force them to do otherwise.

This site suffered from their actions last August, now it is the turn of every publisher of erotica on the planet who uses the PayPal service.

Keep no money in your PayPal account if you can’t afford to lose it!

The e-book of great stories by the EAA writers at the EAACON in Las Vegas last September has been released for sale under the title. ‘Voyeur Eyes Only: erotic encounters in Sin City’.
