I would imagine that there are indie authors who like their independence, who doesn't want editors hanging over them with deadlines, or who doesn't enjoy book signings, speeches, university lectures, all the extraneous stuff that comes with being an established author. People who want to remain independent, maybe even reasonably anonymous.
