Every month it’s the same thing.
Erin sitting on her stoop with a cup trying to keep this site open.
Every month I go through the same emotions.
1.) I Feel bad she has to do that.
2.) I get upset about having to shoulder the load for a lot of free-loaders.
Then I face reality.
I’m not excusing people for their lack of support. Rather I’m highly appreciative of those who do find a way to help out and wish to say thank you to them. To fuel my muse, I need an appreciative audience. Without BC, I simply would not have one. I started on one site that shut down when the owner got tired of fighting the financial battle. Then I went to another site and the same thing happened. I ended up on FM -- but when the bestiality became almost as prevalent as the incest, I could no longer stand to have my stories housed there. That’s a matter of personal preference and FM has provided a service for years.
My guess is that FM’s corporate sponsor has enjoyed a great symbiotic relationship with them, which pays their expense.
So . . . I donate to find an audience. And, I thank those who read my stories and find time to leave a comment.
3.) Having worked my way through it all, I send a donation. I just sent $50.
My last story ( https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/76095/novitiate ) drew a nice number of hits and quite a few positive comments. And so it goes. Where else could I get so much for $50?
