I've got TWO Aristillus short stories. Kinda wondering if I should set up a Patreon, charge a couple of bucks every time I write a prequel short. https://twitter.com/admrlcrnch/status/1109614295837536256 …

If I set up a Patreon for writing short stories (a couple per year; ABSOLUTE max of 1 per month), would you subscribe? What would you pay / what sounds fair?

2/ That'd earn me about 4 tenths of a cent per page read. 15 page story? 6 cents. 80 such readers? $4 If it takes me 14 hours? 30 cents / hour. This is the problem I'm trying to SOLVE, not a solution to it. https://twitter.com/jayawram/status/1109619727494598656?s=19 …

3/ Writing 15 short stories at 10-15 hours each to make a 180 p collection in 200 hours, nets me a profit of 70% of $2.99 = $2.10. Selling 200 copies of it = $420 = $2/hr. Which, again, is the null hypothesis / problem to be solved.https://twitter.com/JohnTaloni/status/1109634038505984001?s=19 …

4/ Ugh, patreon. On some random help page, and I see some dude with nail polish applying makeup. Might have to roll my own mini patreon app in Rails to avoid supporting globohomo. https://blog.patreon.com/patreon-integrations-features …

5/ OK, tentative numbers suggest that I could pull $100-200 per short story. That puts me at perhaps $15/hr, which is twice what I've made from my writing career ("career") so far. I'm inclined to do this. Also, thinking about avoiding Patreon bc SJW.https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1109615495521726464 …
