Gots to Get Paid!

Written by David on January 23rd, 2009

Moriah Jovan and I are going to be doing a cross-blog series on how authors–whether traditionally published, e-published or self-published–might get paid.  For their writing.  I know, I know, it sounds radical.  But we’re going to give it a shot anyway.  I’ll have my introductory post up next week, but Mojo has her first post up today.  Go check out her response to those who feel that “Information wants to be freeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”

    Cool. I’m very interested in this series!

    There is a book available called: “Free Culture” the pdf is free, just google it. (legally free.)

    It goes into a lot of the piracy issue. I’ve got it on my to-read list.

    I’ll think of some ideas in the weekend, maybe the money doesn’t came directly from writinfg but from other things you can do when you are read, because you are read.
    like a bonus.

    Leonor, I’d love to hear whatever ideas you have. There is no easy answer to this problem.
