I went paid maybe 5 weeks in after I justified I am using the money for my son’s college tuition. It just made sense since he’s who I’m writing to and for. I do not plan to paywall anything since the sole reason I joined was to spread the love of being a dad.

I believe people will support if they love the work, and if they can. So far, I think it’s going well. My son is only 6 months, I plan to do this for as long as I can. So I am in no rush to use any paywalls to entice people to pay. I think love is enough to get people to pay - probably not a good business strategy, and kind of cheesy, but I am sticking by it.
