Discouraged Newbie

Hey not totally new to site building or affiliate marketing but new to the forum here and have been trying some different things with IM.

First off I was hit with Amazon pulling out of Colorado due to the Tax thing they are dealing with in CA.

Second a site I built in April with fresh content (written by me) with CB links was sunk in the big G over the 4th of July week end.

Third applied for Barns and Noble affiliate network through the big G and was approved a couple of weeks ago and put some books on the a for mentioned site. And "bam".. (Ref. To the great Chef Emeril )

Got an email today
"Thank you for your continued support of the Barnes & Noble Affiliate Net work".....

BUT WE ARE SHUTTING IT DOWN ON YOU...

Not really but after Aug 9th they are not working with Google any more from what the email is telling me..

Now I'm not whining .. but its a little difficult to push through with set back like these.

I'm still pressing all of my sites and trying to make it through and I know it takes time. Have been doing IM and blogs for a few years and have had minor successes..

Any suggestions on other Book sites .. CB is difficult to sell unless you have a list which is what I am working on next.
