I have been publishing original works on archive of our own (ao3). I found that I am very productive and can churn out 1700-2000 words in a day, and I get 50-200 hits on the stories I update. I would like some advice if I should create a pateron or kofi? I have linked this in my bio on ao3 via twitter because according to ao3 rules they don't let you link patreons directly there.

I am also planning to take a big story off ao3 and either traditionally or self publish it, and would appreciate advice in that as well!

    True. I used to hate that when I read a story, but now that I'm writing an original story with decent grammar, world building and characterization, I'd like some reader engagement and support.

      Definitely, and storytellers deserve to have a few bucks thrown their way. Marketing is absolutely the worst part of writing imo but unfortunately we still gotta do it :agony-deep:
