Dear Readers, Fans, Friends, and Family here on Facebook and Twitter: To Stand One's Ground!
Email from Author Jonathan Harnisch to Amazon.com and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos:
Maureen, Dad: Since I am not permitted to invest or write, what is worth living for? Answer me! Otherwise, please provide me with a new editor, and at this point an important publishing house to eliminate this Amazon waste of time and put me on a pedestal, not a prison. No further discussion. Dad, please forward this to Jeff Bezos while I am symptomatic, here at 1:30 AM with the AMZN, Scribendi, etc., BS, pardon the French.

Please see the description of the book and the link to the interior on the final page, www.facebook.com/jwharnisch "The idea behind this short book is to include some of Jonathan Harnisch's old Facebook and blog posts about living with severe mental illness, cognitive decline and terminal physical disabilities. The writing captures the essence of what he experiences living with severe mental illness and physical disabilities." I am the owner of several blogs, more than 30. Look, I have had it up to my neck with the algorithms that Amazon.com uses justifiably to reduce or put an end to copyright infringement, which I fully understand. In the meantime, other individuals have often hacked into Amazon.com and sell MY work for their financial benefit, but you seldom punish them. I will say this, I write fictionalized autobiographical and sometimes straightforward biographical literature, praised across the globe, won awards, considered brilliant, featured in various magazines from Publishers Weekly to Writers Digest among others, even taught at the university level, moreover, when I was 15 in 1991 I assisted CEO Jeff Bezos, with the help of my father, who helped launch Amazon in 1994. If you will not accept that I might decide to post or publish my work, moreover my life story living with schizophrenia and other mental and physical illness and disability without getting a feeler for what my audience, online reaching over 100 million readers, then feel free to disable my Amazon account. I will then proceed to litigate. And I will win. Listen I do what I do, I get a feel for what works and what does not online and then publish accordingly. I know what I am doing. The bottom line is I have what is called life rights. I can't infringe upon the copyright of my life. Hence, would you suggest as a fix to this all-to-often matter of my alleged and accusatory plagiarism of my life by publishing all my work as public domain? Work with me here. 1.) You have the monopoly of bookselling and 2.) I refuse to publish traditionally. Fix this or remove me. Your algorithms are malicious, and your CEO is as his original and still running URL relentlesss.com seems fitting. That is all I have to say. You have attacked my character. I am appalled. My cell number is XXX XXX XXX or if you wouldn’t mind, please call my wife or write her at XXX XXX XXX or call her at XXX XXX XXX. Her name is Maureen. I am incapacitated and live with terminal illness, and I have as I said had it up to my neck with your ongoing accusations. My writing is original, and I refuse to "prove" it, much less to a computer, not even a real person. Waking up to another email like this that you have sent is appalling. Thumbs down to you. I am a sick and troubled man, and I put my LIFE, my full heart, and soul into my work, and you accuse me of fraud. You stole my patent for the interface for modern Internet shopping and then accuse me of theft and threaten to remove my account. Do as you will and audit me. I find your accusations and attacks malicious, and I need you to treat me with the same respect and dignity of which I deserve. I have spent millions of dollars since the 90s on Amazon.com. I have also sold my position of AMZN stock this year. I am one of the good guys here. I invite you to proceed, as you will. What you have done is undeniab
