I wrote earlier about there being no real competition between authors. Here are some stats to help prove that point.
e-Reader ownership surges since last November; tablet ownership grows more slowly | Pew Internet & American Life Project:
The above article states that 12% of the adult U.S. population owns ebook readers. That's about 19 million people. And if African Americans are 10% of the population that means there could about 1.9 million black adults who own ebook readers. That means if you can get just one out of ten black ebook readers to buy your book that could be 190,000 sales.
The market is there. All you have to do is the marketing. Oh yeah you have to write a decent book.
