“How I Sold 1 Million eBooks in 5 Months” is John Locke’s account of how he became the first self-published author to sell a million ebooks on Amazon’s Kindle platform. Published in 2011, the book breaks down his approach to pricing, marketing, and writing productivity during a period when the ebook market was booming and indie authors had new opportunities.
The book became a bestseller in its own right and attracted attention from both aspiring authors and publishing industry observers. It remains a useful snapshot of a specific moment in digital publishing history, even if the market has evolved considerably since then.
