Side Hustle (via writing)
Posted: Mon Feb 22, 2021 2:17 am
Out of curiosity, have any of you veteran writers ever parlayed your talents into anything financially productive? I know a number of Erotica writers actually write stories for a living, though that's a little more 'accessible' compared to more niche things like ENF.
Granted, I'm not looking to make my stories exclusive to paying readers only or anything like that. Considering how cheap of a person I am, and how much I appreciate free and fairly open sites like this in terms of content, it would feel wildly hypocritical to somehow restrict my own online writing to only those that want to pay for it. I'm just interested in the possibilities. Things like stories being commissioned, or intensive editing/ghost writing, etc. Heck, even character concepts being commissioned within a larger work.
Just some thoughts that have been floating around during the economic ridiculousness of COVID. I'm curious if everyone that posts here does so out of their own interest in the genre and their own free time like I do, or if some of you pair your efforts here with more self-serving works and ambitions elsewhere.
Thoughts/experiences?
P.S. Viredae, by all means take this post down if it violates the spirit of the board!
