Amazon Took My Gold Medal Away

Congrats! You’re the best. For now. That’s the essence of an email I got back in June, when my novel “The Adults” was listed as an Amazon Best Book of 2011 … So Far. You haven’t heard of this list? Two weeks ago, I would have directed you to my Amazon page, where you’d see the gold badge on my book. It was inscribed Best Book of 2011, and then in small print, “So Far.”
