Joe Konrath's eBook Self-Publishing Drastically More Profitable than His "Big Six" Deals

Konrath's blog: " ... not only does self-publishing earn more money than a print deal does over the years, you can also reach more readers by selling more copies. Think about that. I've gotten over a quarter of a million dollars in advances from the Big 6. That's more than most writers will ever get. And I've also earned out above and beyond that number. But all by myself I can make a quarter mil in two years. And I can reach more people in six years than a Big 6 publisher with all of its distribution power."
