I get paid to write weird fetish erotica for people, and I still put way more effort into it than this wanker does into his "journalism."

The "journalists" are just writing a different kind of fetish erotica.

I can make money on writing fetish erotica?

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 year ago

Not good money, and I have to do this sort of stuff instead of more legitimate art because it is the only thing that pays (barely) enough for me to make rent.

You made me curious, would you mind telling me more about it? 🙂 Do you write short stories that you sell online as a freelancer or is it something bigger, like having a contract with a publisher and selling books?

[-] ComradeSalad@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, usually for Patreon, and sometimes the author commissions a good artist to make a piece for their short story (or vice versa).

There can be decent money in it, but it’s mostly a hobby or side job type deal.

Of course the better your writing the better you’ll do.
