Urg. Why did you have to undo the decent statement with this?

Good job bsky.app/profile/dann...
<butterfly meme> this is contrition?

They have apologised and undone that
October 5, 2025 at 6:28 AM
I hope not. Jobs market is hard rn.
October 4, 2025 at 11:34 PM
Thanks, I saw. The owner is apologising to people for it.
October 4, 2025 at 10:26 PM
Looks like Sam Dyer is unpicking the mess now
October 4, 2025 at 8:40 PM
Thanks Sam. I love a lot of Bitmap Books and I love them so it was disappointing to see. Thanks for addressing the blocking directly.
October 4, 2025 at 8:27 PM
Yeah sorry typo.

Well it covers A to K, so.
October 4, 2025 at 8:05 PM
And they *would* have worked with this person before, it’s a volume one!
October 4, 2025 at 7:56 PM
It’s the minority doing that. Most are very disappointed in a publisher they really like - they didn’t bother to check the author out and the quality of the writing itself is awful with poor research.

Even putting the author bent a horrible person aside, this just isn’t up to their quality bar.
October 4, 2025 at 7:55 PM
Yeah I’m unblocked now too. It’s so weird
October 4, 2025 at 7:21 PM
I really hope so
October 4, 2025 at 6:13 PM
I have both volumes of that and it is excellent
October 4, 2025 at 6:11 PM
That’s good to hear! Hopefully they can address it, they have unblocked people too so maybe something is happening.
October 4, 2025 at 6:09 PM
Yeah, agreed. Very bad look.
October 4, 2025 at 6:03 PM
Hah yeah, says a lot.
October 4, 2025 at 5:48 PM
It’s so disappointing!

The sounds like I book I want to read btw!
October 4, 2025 at 5:43 PM
The publisher is blocking people for criticising their book too (including st1ka!). Bitmap used to be an automatic preorder for me, very disappointing.
October 4, 2025 at 5:33 PM
Yeah. I have from saying EARLIER THIS WEEK ‘Bitmap books don’t miss’ to never preordering one of their books again.
October 4, 2025 at 5:31 PM
lol they blocked me for this. I have so many of their books
October 4, 2025 at 5:30 PM
Did they block you for criticising their book too?
