Self-published author sells over a million books for Kindle

John Locke, a self-published author sells over a million books for Kindle on Amazon.com.   MSN reports the "Amazon.com recently announced that Locke is the eighth author to sell over one million Kindle books — over 1,010,370 — to become the newest member of the "Kindle Million Club," and the first independently published author to do so. Using Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), Locke has made protagonist Donovan Creed a household — or at least a beach and bedside reading — presence that would probably make plenty of print-only authors envious."

I haven't read any of these books, but the last time I looked on Amazon most of Locke's the books were selling for 99 cents.  Surely an inspiration for other authors.
