As stated above, you can link your paypal, patreon and ko-fi to your account, and a fancy little "tip" button will appear under your profile pic. You are allowed to timegate your chapters to your patreon, to advertise, etc, but from the website itself you won't get a cent besides tipping. There are plans for writing competitions with cash price pools apparently, but I don't know if that's still in the cards?

It's just about finding sponsors. We can't really rely on Tony all the time for sponsoring competitions, soo yeah.

As everyone suggested, you can try kofi and patreon. Just don't expect people to throw all their money at you, that probably wont happen :sweat_smile:

:blob_hmm_two: My awkward-laugh emoji conflicts me saying that people likely won't throw all their money at you?
Even though you have so many readers :blob_blank:

I have earned an incredible five dollars from my writing. I have made thousands off of illustrations though... So yeah. Writing isn't very lucrative. I might print up a few copies of my books to bring to conventions in the future. Who knows, maybe someone will buy one out of pity?

Illustration is easy because it requires the least attention span. You can just... look at it.

Writing is hard to earn from bro. Guess you gotta NEET your way through life and put writing as a part-time thing if you ever want it to be an actual "career".
