You are comparing apples and hand grenades here. Major publishers have a budget--but they also have account managers with Amazon who contact them if something goes sideways. This is somebody, whether intentionally or not, kicking an indie (she's got one publication through Simon and Schuster, the rest are Amazon self-publications) writer in the shins.

- colomon 7y agoIndie writer isn't exactly right, she's a successful children's book author under her real name, with at least a dozen books out from Puffin. (Also a Hugo award winning comic book creator, but that was self-published.) But yes, writing for adults as T. Kingfisher she's mostly self-published, and that was the case with the book in question, I believe.
