I'm fairly new around here but have made few impulse buys on self promoted books. Before purchasing, I've ensured that others on mobileread have given it positive reviews. I've read two of my four impulse purchases so far and I am impressed. I really like the idea of independent publishing, to me it means that a book, story, plot etc has not been massaged by corporate giants to achieve maximum audience appeal. It also means that the editing can be a bit rough at times but I really enjoy knowing that I am 'hearing' the author's true voice in the story.
So, sometimes I know I will be taking a punt, but for a buck or two, I'm cool with that.
Hats of to all you self publishing authors.
cheers
