One author is doing an experiment about ebook prices.  She's dropping the price of her new book from $10.99 to $1.99 for a week to see if it will increase sales.  If this is successful she's going to push her publisher to lower ebook prices.  Check it out here:

I've read the book, it's awesome.  So if you want to support a new writer, and make a statement about ebook prices, purchase this book for $1.99 from Dec. 7–Mon. Dec.13
