The platform makes it easy for people to find my page and subscribe to the content they want to see.
I get to gear everything toward travel (The Wandering Editor: A Travel Writer Who Edits) writing and editing.
Patreon allows me to monetize my writing and editing skills.
What does this mean for followers of The Starving Artist? Not too much. I'm going to stick with The Working Blog for as long as I can (it's down to once a month now, typically posted in the last week) and I'll continue posting 1 to 3 Starving Artist posts a month. The Starving Artist posts might slow down, or they might become more personal, I'm not sure yet.
The long-form essay posts for FREE at the end of the month, and stays up for free. This means you can go ahead and read the narratives that I've poured my life into over the past several years. But if you want to, you can also sign up to see how I wrote and edited that essay, or you can sign up to see a travel photo and caption, and/or read an editing article.
Also, if you just want to post comments here telling us about your experiences with Patreon or other creator platforms, you absolutely should! This is a safe space, so feel free to respond below.
