You need to clarify - are you shipping items that you are selling via Amazon Marketplace - or are you an affiliate seller sending traffic to Amazon. I am going to guess an affiliate seller. In that case, it means someone ordered something and if not in the shipped column, and if not in the shipped column in time, then the order got cancelled, Amazon was out of stock, or it might be a preorder for an item that is not available yet.
Like a coming soon music CD - people often order before they are out, and it will not be shipped until it is finally released. That could be days or months. Once shipped, then you will get your commission.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
