Self-Published Author Earns $100,000 in January

Self-published author J.A. Konrath claims he's raked in $100,000 over the past three weeks.

That's revenue from his self-published titles on Amazon.

According to his blog post, Konrath's "The List" - a book publishers rejected - has been in the top 100 for two months and is currently ranked #71.

"I am soooo glad I had so many books rejected,” Konrath blogs.

GateBookNewser reports Konrath is averaging well over $3,500 a day for January, even though the holiday season is over.

"The List" sells for $3.99 on Amazon and Prime members can read it for free right now.
