Default Interesting article on earnings/royality for SP vs publishers


Time to time friends forward interesting articles about the writing profession. Just got sent this one by Joe Konrath about the difference between potential earnings of Self Publishing vs AAP publishers. Its about a year old but if ya haven't seen it and are considering the SP route might want to check it out.

Thanks for sharing this - it's great to see this numbers breakdown. I keep trying to find this kind of information but all of the answers I've been finding seem so subjective...

Yeah, had the same problem when I started writing. I did a series of experiments to evaluate the effectiveness of 2 dozen promo activities and pubed it in three ezine articles. You can find it on my link page under SP: What works/what doesn't.
