You're absolutely right, I'd be gambling. With the first few, even more so. But the biggest gamble is on me - that my editing is high enough quality, 'my' authors will listen to suggested changes, my covers are eye-catching enough, and that I'm as good at promotion as I think. And that all of that will make enough of a difference to each ebook to eventually make me a decent ongoing income. That's the kicker, you see - if I'm good, my authors will win out and so will I. If I'm crap, my authors do about the same, minus 10%, then all band together to publicly abuse me and garner lots of publicity along the way. And they sell more books.
