Long before I discovered Southern Gospel, I grew up listening to Contemporary Christian music. In 2001, I started my first book, a history of the genre. After a book deal with a publisher fell through (due to financial difficulties on their part), I ended up deciding to self-publish the book. I printed up a few hard copies and made it available as a free download online. [EDIT: The book is no longer available for download.]
The book’s been up slightly less than two years now. During that time, a couple hundred people download it each month. It just occurred to me this afternoon that I hadn’t checked for months to see how many copies had been downloaded. I checked this afternoon and was pleasantly surprised to see that it had just hit the 10,000 mark. To be precise, the book has been downloaded 10,538 times.
