Amazon's processing more quickly
Either I've forgotten how long it took to get the paperback edition of Practically Shameless for sale on Amazon.com, or their processing has sped up considerably, because they're offering the audio book for sale in record time and have correctly linked it to the page for the paperback edition.
The audio book's page at Amazon
Amazon hasn't sent me a purchase order for any copies of the audio book yet, so it's listed as "temporarily out of stock." I guess that looks better for them than "We haven't gotten our butts in gear to ask for any yet."
I will presumably receive an order in the next few days, and after I pay through the nose to UPS to ship them to Kentucky (Amazon unfortunately doesn't do well with USPS shipments), audio books will be for sale about a week after that.
On an email list I belong to for Colorado Independent Publishers, someone wrote, "Everything at Amazon takes a week. No one knows why."
While I await the purchase order, I uploaded front and back cover images of the audio book, and they were on view in less than 15 minutes.
While I was at it, I uploaded an image of the back cover of the paperback. You'll spot a tiny version of it beneath the photo of the front cover, and you can click it to see a larger version.
