November was a good month in terms of income, revenue, and my smutlancing life. As we’re barreling towards the end of 2020 (which makes me think both, “Oh thank fucking gawd!” and “HOW?!”), a lot of plans are being made for what 2021 will look like.

Nothing much going on in this episode other than a small podcast schedule change for the rest of 2020. Hopefully by the December episode, we’ll be able to tell you what the podcast will look like in 2021, but we’re still figuring that out.

Writing erotic fiction is fun but it is a limited field. Some authors can and do make a living from their fiction alone but if you’re not one of them, don’t despair! There are lots of us who diversify our writing portfolio to bring in the cash. How do you do it though?

Get your chart geek on in what we should call the transparency report. Not only am I sharing my income and expenses as a Smutlancer (as usual), with the permission of my business partners, I’m also sharing gross totals from each revenue stream I’m a part of, with a pie chart!
