I mean, can I ask people for what I want. Not from the universe, from real living people.
Can I use mouth words to say ‘help me’?
Will you do this for me?
It sounds so simple when I write it like that.
Can you put some money in my bank account each month to concentrate on writing and learning about publishing?
Whoosh!
It’s what the subscription, patronage piece is all about.
There is an agreement that I’ll do this if you do that.
An output of some sort.
A deal.
What if I want to devour writing, and I want, I need, your help to keep a roof over my head whilst I do that?
What’s the protocol for that?
That’s what I want.
It’s actually what I need.
