I wouldn't give up my day job to live off royalties. I make more in an hour by day than I make in six months from books. Well, so far anyway. Of course I do give two of my three away for free. But that's marketing.

I'm self publishing through smashwords. I notice their Barnes and Noble distribution channel generates the most $$.
