ADVENTURES OF ALEXA (BOOK 2) : SCANDAL OF THE FORBIDDEN PICTURE

 

My fellow Stibbonites,

Despair not, for the “Scandal of the Forbidden Picture” cannot be so easily suppressed, no matter how big the puritan corporate hivemind fighting it is or how Bond-villain-like the man behind its policies of censorship may be. 

Now you can find “Adventures of Alexa (Book 2): Scandal of the Forbidden Picture” in paperback and e-book format at the Lulu Bookstore!

Paperback: https://rb.gy/hkvmpf

E-Book: https://rb.gy/ywty40

Banned in 11 countries in less than 6 months after its initial release, the second installment to the “Adventures of Alexa” trilogy is back! 

Sure; you can try and hide it amongst all the other fantasy crap in your E-book list and, when your girlfriend asks about it, blurt out an “I have no idea how that got there” a little too quickly to be convincing… ooor you can get the paperback edition, hide it under a loose floorboard next to that special sock of yours and, once you’re gone, prove to those ungrateful grandchildren, when they accidentally discover it, what a fucking legend their pop-pop truly was.

I’m just sayin’… think of your legacy, man! And remember: fap responsibly.


Also available on Smashwords in most e-book formats: https://shorturl.at/pMSKC
 

PS: For those few, happy few, Stibbonites that have been with me since the beginning, I’ll let you in on a little secret. “Scandal of the Forbidden Picture” is the new incarnation of “Bordello Royale”, originally published in 2017, on Smashwords. Of course, this new edition has been completely rewritten, revamped, enlarged and thoroughly embellished with all sorts of new dirty bits. In short, the story’s been refurbished from the ground up. Only the core of the plot has remained the same.

ADVENTURES OF ALEXA (BOOK 2): SCANDAL OF THE FORBIDDEN PICTURE BANNED IN 11 COUNTRIES

My fellow Stibbonites,

I stand before you today, heart in hand, a proud and profoundly honored writer of smut whose efforts have finally received the recognition they deserved.

A certain Bond-villain-looking man’s policies at Amazon KDP have removed my book “Adventures of Alexa (Book 2): Scandal of the Forbidden Picture” from their platform in 11 countries.

Which, technically, makes me an almost worldwide banned author. Boom, baby! That’s an instant hall of fame backstage pass if ever there was one!

M. R. Stibbons banned in 11 countries... my stuff is that dirty, yes. It’s now official.

After several humorously futile attempts at communicating with Amazon’s customer support in the hopes of resolving the issue, I only got the same copy-pasted response again and again: "the content of your book violates our content policies". The nice Indian folk at CS never specified whether the "problem" was in the book’s content or the cover itself nor were they open to any discussion. 

To be honest, I’ve had warmer and far more friendly and helpful chats with AI chatbots.

But judging from the fact that my book “Adventures of Alexa (Book 1): Curse of the Horny Ruby” has not be removed, I would guess that what rubbed the Bond-villain-looking man the wrong way was the cover.

In other words, the “Scandal of the Forbidden Picture” did indeed contain a forbidden picture for the moral standards of someone who is OK with the idea that a person 18 years of age can pursue a career in porn, but God forbid they have a watered-down beer.

So, not to toot my own horn, but I’m also kind of a prophet. Like the Simpsons or something…
