Biyankavitch: The Black Witch is Now on Okadabooks for Free!

Hey guys, I’m sorry for my long hiatus. My host was migrating their servers and basically, this site was off radar for maintenance. Some of you already reached out to ask what was wrong, as they couldn’t access the site. It’s back now, and hopefully, we don’t have any of that nonsense again. Biyankavitch is free on Okadabooks. Go ahead and download it >>>> HERE. Don’t throw away your…

Monetizing your fiction online

These platforms pay writers for web fiction

Photo by Jess Bailey on Unsplash

With digital publishing becoming more popular, writers have also been flocking to self-publishing their content using dedicated platforms for book publishing. Some of these platforms have programs where writers can monetize their content, whether from ad-share programs or reader subscriptions. Platforms made for web novels and webcomics will be included.

This will be a list of those platforms where writers can earn. Platforms that won’t be included are those that have no monetization options, and sites like Wattpad which don’t offer monetization to all users. Platforms that only offer monetization through publishing contracts will also be excluded.

DISCLAIMER: Before using any of these platforms, please research and investigate their terms and policies to ensure that they are a good fit for you. Based on my research, none of these platforms have any glaringly obvious red flags (such as terms that state that you transfer ownership) and none have exclusivity clauses (i.e.: You’re able to post to multiple of these platforms at once).

Some of these platforms also have publishing programs in addition to offering a platform. Please avoid signing any contracts which you don’t fully understand.

Novels and comics

Here are the platforms that allow users to post both novels and comics.

Tapas — Offers two ways for users to earn: ad revenue and by creators locking chapters of their series which readers pay to unlock. To start earning from ads, the creator must have at least 100 subscribers.

Inkspired — Allows writers to create paid membership plans to monetize their audience. Allows posting in multiple formats: Story with chapters, interactive stories, short tale, comics, and microfiction. Also allows users to post in multiple languages

VoyceMe — All content on VoyceMe is completely free to read; creators earn from ads and reader sponsorships, which allows readers to pay $5-$40 directly to writers.

Novels

Fictionate.me — According to this platform, writers can “Choose a payment model for your readers — Pay per book, pay per chapter, or have a monthly subscription. You earn the way you want to while giving your readers a choice of how to pay.”

Though it is specifically for books, it seems possible to upload comics as FictionateMe has an option to upload EPUB files.

This platform also allows writers to automatically generate a natural-sounding audio version.

Neovel — Pays writers based both on number of reads.

Creative Novels — Creators can earn by locking their chapters which readers have to pay to unlock.

Odeen — A relatively small app that seems to not have much traffic anymore. Offers 90% ad revenue to writers. All stories are free to read, and it allows writers to post in many languages.

Kindle Vella — Also allows creators to earn by locking chapters. The first three chapters are free and the rest are pay-to-read.

Note: Be sure to read through Vella’s rules. There are multiple content guidelines to keep in mind, such as being unable to publish “content that is in the public domain or freely available on the web.” So, creators are unable to publish on both Vella and Royal Road at the same time, for instance.

Comics

Webtoons — A free-to-read comics platform. Creators earn from ad revenue or allowing users to pay for early access with Fast Pass.

GlobalComix — Creators earn by having users spend credits they buy to gain access to their comics, graphic novels, or manga.

Dillyhub — Offers a variety of monetization options, including selling content, renting content, or selling early access to readers.

Experience That ’99 Love with Tomilola ‘Coco’ Adeyemo.

One of the things I definitely love to do outside reading memoirs is reviewing Tomilola Coco’s books. If you are an ardent reader of my blog and the Nigerian fiction series community, you already know by now that Tomilola Coco is a household name.

In 2017, I read and reviewed Tomilola Coco’s Dangerous Passion and I was like yes, this is it! this is the height of magic, but I didn’t realise…

A must read book!

Hi dear one, I’m super excited to share with you this book of a treasure. I realized how many have given up on their dreams because they were not capable of meeting their personal goals. 1. Every year comes with new resolutions to follow and then 10days into the year, ‘it’s broken’ and most of us end up giving up entirely. 2. I was speaking with a teenager about her goals 3weeks ago and she…

7 Great Resources for Discovering African Comics

These are 7 of the best resources for discovering African Comics

Googling African Comics these days thankfully returns a series of articles highlighting one African comic or the other. But that’s several articles pointing you in many different places (or saying the same darn thing about the same darn comics). If you’re like me, that means bookmarking a tonne of pages for later when you can sift through and find your favourites. That’s not very productive and…

The Wounded Child

Remember my poem The Wounded Child? Well turned it into a short story and published it on Okadabooks today. So here is the story here:

Her tears stain her cheeks as she lies down on the ground. Her heart pounds heavily, her poor tortured mind begging for the earth beneath her to swallow her completely.

This has been her reality for the past 18 years of her painful existence.

Day in  day out, the day begins with her mother stomping into the bedroom. The woman would forcefully pull the duvet down and smack her hard to awaken her.

Once the child was fully awake, she would then be treated to a couple minutes of verbal torture which leads to the child running to the bathroom to take refuge.

Unfortunately for her, the abuse does not end there as the woman would follow her all the way there and would gleefully pick the child apart.

Pointing out every single weakness she had, draining whatever happiness and confidence the child ought to have.

Once she is done, she leaves a sobbing child scrambling to reclaim whatever puzzle piece was missing in her life. That is usually not the end though.

The woman would come home from work and continue her horrid assault, sometimes even burning up the child's favourite books and CDS in her presence, deeming them unnecessary for her development.

"N-No more...."

The girl whispers to no one but herself as she rolls around on the floor, sobbing softly.

Her grades had been slipping for the past couple school terms with the teachers expressing grave concern for the child's future as she used to be one of the brightest stars in the academic space. Oh if only they knew the truth behind the thin veil.

Her hands and legs were decorated with tiny scars, some from beatings of her mother and other children that often bullied her and others from the pain she inflicted upon herself.

What are these multitude of conflicting emotions that she feels? Oh why does her head hurt as though she had a hangover from the night before even though she never smokes nor drink?

Her mother tells her she has no friends, that no one would care about a pathetic loser about her. She is right.

Afterall, years have passed since she first began college and no one has come to check on her. No phone call, no text. Not even an invite to some party or event.

It does not help that she is a black girl and this sort of questionable behavior is more or less acceptable within the black community.

Almost as though it were some secret test of strength for any child that wishes to be accepted in society as a mature adult.

The moment the door swings open, she nearly jumps up because her mother barges into the room, a fake smile in place. The child cowers in fear.

Oh how much she loathes that expression as she knows what that means.

The elderly woman pauses for a moment, her red Fendi bag slipping off her shoulder and onto the floor.

The child coils up in fright as the woman takes slow tentative steps towards her, like a predator out to get its prey. She then kneels down beside the child, her wicked smile never wavering.

"Oh what's wrong my child hm?"

No response from the child.

"Can you not talk?!! Do I have to shout at you in order to get you to respond?!!"

Still no response.

The woman sighs before smacking the girl hard in the head, forcing the girl to give up her position.

The woman then proceeds to keep on smacking her, the intensity and pain from her hands increasing as the child struggles to break free.

The mother yanks the child by the hair and immediately throws her into the glass table, glass flying everywhere as bits of broken glass tears into the child's skin.

The woman walks away, not even bothering to spare a glance at the child.
