Hello guys...I want to know if there is a way a Nigerian fiction writer can earn (consistently) $500 monthly? That is about N170,000. We have a lot of talented writers in this section, but through my research I found out we writers rarely earn decent income from our works. It is so sad.

I feel there should be a way for writers to earn something decent from their works consistently...at least if they consistently keep putting out novels. Please come up with suggestions, or if you know anyone that already earns that much or more. let us know how the person does it.

I think you should find Nnedi Okoroafor online and ask.
In this forum writers consider themselves lucky if they make 5,000 NGN from a story.
Most are content with nothing other than an 8,000 member thread view.
Your inquiry and what a lot of people here are happy with are worlds apart.
