Well, so far my book has been up for three weeks and as of today I've had 40 sales, so thanks to everyone who has downloaded a copy! I hope you've enjoyed it. And now, just some food for thought. I read an article in the UK Guardian today about the top ten highest-earning authors. Here is the list, in U.S. dollars for this past year:
1. James Patterson ($70 million)
2. Stephenie Meyer ($40m)
3. Stephen King ($34m)
4. Danielle Steel ($32m)
5. Ken Follett ($20m)
6. Dean Koontz ($18m)
7. Janet Evanovich ($16m)
8. John Grisham ($15m)
9. Nicholas Sparks ($14m)
10. JK Rowling ($10m)
Now that's some serious cash! And JK Rowling didn't even have a new book out this year. Last year, she made $300 million... Anyway, something to think about. As for me, I'm just happy I've made $14 bucks this month and had some people read my work. Thanks again and Happy Holidays!
