A chapter book is a child's book that have chapter breaks rather than illustrated books.

And your exact quote was he writes chapters and publishes them as a book. Not the same thing as chapter books.

But if you want indie authors that make 6 and 7 figures on what you consider a book, there are several. R. Blake, B Crouch, J Konrath/Kilborn, J Nobody, R Brown, A Lee. Shall I continue?
I had seen the practice referred to as Chapter books, based on the idea that the books were published one chapter at a time. Serials are somewhat different than that, though I wouldn't be surprised if some refer to the practice by that name as well.

I'm sure there are. Not sure what it has to do with why best selling authors are turning indie, but if it makes you feel better go ahead.
