How I Make Money Writing is approaching a big milestone: Interview #100.
What started as a weekly newsletter has turned into an archive of real financial transparency for writers at every level.
At this point it spans the whole spectrum. NYT bestsellers and indie outliers, staff reporters and precarious freelancers, poets, playwrights, and corporate ghostwriters.
It’s a library of hard numbers. Six-figure book advances and project fees, but also kill fees, royalty statements, and what the “hourly rate” looks like in real life. If you’re trying to price your work, negotiate, or just sanity-check where you’re at, you can use it to benchmark your own career against the market.
To reflect the value of the growing archive, the annual membership price will soon increase to $70/year.
Before that happens, I want early supporters to be able to lock in the current price.
If you subscribe before the change, you’ll keep the original $50/year rate for as long as your subscription stays active. Your price won’t increase, no matter what.
