"Words are cheap," they say, "they are a dime a dozen" (well, actually, at that rate ...)

Production February 2025, 120 738 words, 120 738 / 12 = 10 061.5 dimes, or 1006 USD 15 cents.

It wouldn't be a windfall gain either. January, 129 238 words, 129 238 / 120 = 1076 USD 98 cents.

Up to April*, not counted yet.

May, 133 793 words, June 62 694 words, July 71 459 words, August 83 674 words, September 129 703 words, October 132 300 words, November 101 299 words, December 105 901 words.

Eight Months

133 793 + 62 694 + 71 459 + 83 674 + 129 703 + 132 300 + 101 299 + 105 901 = 820 823 words.

820 823 / 120 = 6840 USD 19 cents.

Anyone citing the proverb, do you have ...

6840 + 1006 + 1076 = 8922 USD
98 + 15 + 19 = 132 cents

... 8923 USD 32 cents?

Would come handier than remarks like that./HGL

Other:

Oh like if I use or print what you wrote is free? And you are welcoming donations if people like to contribute?

Me:

kind of

if you make good money, technically you could not give me a cent, but I count on honesty

not giving me a cent is more like for those starting up and still struggling

I don't believe everyone is honest, but I count on some people being so, and on some who struggle today to be able to pay tomorrow or next year.

It would only be a naive imagination of everyone being honest if I totally needed every printed copy that was sold to give me royalties./HGL
