News - Indie Minnesotan Author Amanda Hocking sells over 450,000 books

Things like this could only happen with the Kindle self-publishing and other e-book self-publishing that has been going on.  I haven't read a book by Amanda yet but I do own the book Hollowland and am planning on reading it next month.

Anyway see the full news story at the link below.

  1. Wow! Way to go Amanda Hocking! I've had my eye on her books ever since I got my e-reader back in December. I actually intend to purchase her Trylle trilogy as soon as I finish more of the books I've received recently.

  2. It is pretty cool. I own Hollowland and the first in the Trylle trilogy and am even more excited to read them now!

    Thanks for the comment :-)
