I Earned a Cool 50 Dollar Bonus for High Member Engagement!
Did you know that getting a bonus for member engagement was a thing?
I know, I know, it’s another one of those: “Ooh look what I got!” stories, but I promise not to be annoyed that you clicked on it, if you promise not to be annoyed because I wrote it.
I get it; It can definitely be a bit annoying when we read stories about writers bragging about their bonuses. That’s exactly how I felt — until I got one. Now, I get why they post those stories.
In all honesty, I don’t think the majority are attempting to brag, I mean after all, come on, it’s 50 bucks (in my case anyway). Certainly not enough for anyone to risk going to hell, for the sin of coveting my little cash.
Okay, kidding aside. I think PRIDE is the motivating factor, why most writers post their bonuses, and other accomplishments (like publishing 235 stories to date — YAY ME!).
But luckily for you guys, there’s another less self-serving reason I decided to share the news about mine.
