I know, I know, I know. I’m right there with ya! This work is seen as giveaways, because of how things played out in the early days of blogging and marketing strategies that rely heavily on producing tiered content, with the majority of it being free. It screwed us all down the line by positioning this work as having low value.
And no, Patreon and paid newsletters will not fix everything. I’m still working on telling the rest of this story, so I’ll definitely get to that!
Let’s keep talking about it, though, and bringing it to people’s attention. xoxo
