Has anyone else had this happen?
I emailed kdp to ask them to add my book to a category that a.)doesn't seem to be accessible from the bisac categories, and b.)I've successfully submitted to before. They write back with:
"Regarding the other category "Kindle Store › Kindle eBooks › Science Fiction & Fantasy › Fantasy › Series," at this time, this exact category is not available and cannot be added. So please add another available category or if you want to add this category ""Kindle Store › Kindle eBooks › Science Fiction & Fantasy › Fantasy," you can write back to us."
It's a rather granular category, i.e., only around 500 or so books, so are they saving it for special authors? I see a bunch of KB authors in there, and as I said I have one in there as well. Do you think they were concerned about my book belonging in that category? It is fantasy, and it is part of a series (though the rest of the series exists only as notes....), so I don't see how that could be the reason.
Any ideas?
