    A motherfucking tree branch the size of a tree fell on my car. And my chainsaw is busted. And I had to get 5 new tires on my truck. And everything sucks. And now I'm poor.

    So I may be selling out and trying to monetize some of my work. Cause my laptop is giving my weekly errors and hardware failures. So, need a new comp, or no more writing.

    Central texas, and I bet I got 4+ inchs of snow yesterday.

    Broke a massive branch from the weight of it.

    Yep, that’s shitty alright.

    Selling out, or monetising your writing, is fine. It’s definitely work though; whether you go the commissions route or provide early access, both kinda need consistent output.

    I’m not 100% sure on the going rates for either, but you’re in the right community for finding that out. I wish you luck if you choose to go through with it.

    Yeah, the branch made a massive popping and cracking sound like...10 feet from my bedroom window. Scared the absolute shit outta me.

    I feel I should mention here - despite my sig, I am fine with commissioned writers. (I just don't work for them without pay.)

    As long as you don't go around burning all your previous work, you're not sinning in my book.
