Amazon keeps grabbing profits from my mom and B's books. One came off Amazon. One is still there but to make a minimum amount the price has gone up significantly. Amazon is totally unfair to authors.
I hate amazon!

I have self-published several books on Amazon, and I'm about to serialize another one. Three sold reasonably well, two not so much. Enough is right, the author sets the price. There is a minimum price to compensate Amazon for the price of printing the book.
I don't understand what you think is unfair about the process. Writing is a tough way to make money all publishers are going to take a cut from the profits, they need to make a living, too.

Folks on reddit (in selfpub) are saying that Amazon had some kind of computer glitch. They are trying to fix the problem.
