Two and a half years ago, according to more than one national newspaper, I was the 'Kindle King'. Brilliant, yes? Except two of them also called me a "she", which gives you an indication of how deep their research goes.
Either way, I sold around 400,000 ebooks through self-publishing in the UK and it's been terrific for me in pretty much every way. In early 2012, I signed a six-book deal with Pan MacmillanOne of largest fiction and non-fiction book publishers in UK; includes imprints of Pan, Picador and Macmillan Children’s Books for my Jessica Daniel crime series. Since then, I've also signed for eight more books on top, not all in the same series, or genre. It is quite the investment for both them and me.
