As a fiction writer, one of the most important aspects of your craft is finding the most effective way to monetize your work. While traditional methods, such as publishing an entire book as a standalone e-book, can be effective, there is a more lucrative and efficient option available: publishing your novel in chapters.
Stories of two best friends, Tejas and Kabir, who together got the super-power of turning themselves into ants. They go around town, helping people with their superpowers. My 6 year old son is the reason for creating these characters - this started as a bedtime story routine, and turned into a regular thing that we know get a lot of joy from. I am putting it out there for the world so that other parents looking for unique, cheesy bedtime stories can use them. I will publish regular chapters every few days with unique art work to make it fun.

For the last 18 months, we have been on a mission to help writers make money and we have been successful at it. Amongst many things that we have learned along the way, one of the most important ones is how difficult it is for writers to decide how to price their e-books or posts that they want to sell as a one-off.
I have been hearing this for at least 6 years now - Indian fans will not pay creators or for their content. They want everything for free, and therefore Facebook/Instagram/YouTube/(list all other short video apps) want creators to just give away all of their content. I personally have seen enough examples where Indian fans are happy to pay for content and do so regularly. Instead of boring you with theory, here are actual examples of fans paying creators for their content - either by contributing $$ to their creation process, or by buying their content.

The internet of today for "users" is mostly tied to a social identity that users don't own - see the most popular websites and apps, and almost every one of them requires a unique identity to use them. Not so unique, then?
At ScrollStack, it's literally "our business" to help creators make money from their fans/followers. On this journey, the most sceptical ones are the creators themselves. Here is what I hear most commonly as I have conversations with creators from across India:

You are an author, podcaster, photographer, journalist or a social media celebrity. You have 2K+ followers on Instagram or on Facebook and your tweets regularly get 100+ retweets. People love you. They spend hours enjoying your work. But, you don’t make any money from it. The platforms - Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter don’t share revenues. You spend a lot of time on your creations that no one pays for, and you end up chasing clueless sponsors/advertisers. There is an obvious resolution of this paradox - your most passionate fans should pay you directly, and support your work.
ScrollStack is now open for all creators. With this update, you can post articles, podcasts, photos, sketches, and videos in the language of your choice. You can make your content free, available only to your followers, or charge for it – anywhere in the world.
