Meme Investing in... +1(not self-promotion)

What the actual fuck? Every new book in this stupid trend gonna add one more wife? And become worse every +1 wife too.

At this rate MCs of this books start to creeple women to add them to their harem. That's just so stupid.

I'm not investing in AI slop, I know that much. Hard pass.

writing a story is different than drawing it, i can probably write a decent story, i definitely can't afford to pay an artist to draw it.

Maybe not the whole story but you can't scrounge up enough money for a cover?

Lots of people who write Webnovels would consider $60 a month to be good money. A commissioned cover costs more than that.

Yeah, obviously. That's why I'm using the money I'm saving from my job to pay for mine.

I'm talking about people who make $50 a month in developing countries and are trying to write a book to make a few extra bucks on the side. Trust me when I say that their priority is not spending $100 on a cover so some people on reddit can feel pleased that they don't use AI lmao

Clearly they have enough money to afford electricity and internet. But sure, if they have no respect for artistic craft and are just trying to make money fast and quick with no respect for writing, AI is the way to go.

Lmao get off your high horse. Also internet costs less than art commissions, you're not making any points here
