There are good reasons why going author-publisher Indie is so attractive to writers.
Bingo. I can make almost 35 cents a copy for a 99 cent book. Sure, it's not even pizza money until I sell a lot of copies, but it's inline with what my trad peers are making. I'll never be in hardback, but I can make almost that much in commissions from a 2.99 book. And that is Pizza money!!!
