casagui I started writing to help with my dyslexia. Sometimes what I had in my mind doesn't get translated into text, or it got translated wrongly. Anyways, I started it as a hobby for self improvement. I'm no under obligation to update daily, but someone from webnovel reached out to me and offered me a contract. I still put on my terms. Money is not what I seek. I stated out, I can only do this much 12-15k words a month because of my lifestyle. If it's okay, I'll sign the contract, if not, I can't. Because they can terminate you or hire someone else to continue your novel in the case you can't meet the contract agreements. Because of that, I do update monthly, but if I hadn't signed the contract, I would write on my own terms only. I think some of us writers because it's what we like to do with the little free time we have. I got to say, as a full-time career woman and also running a business on the side, writing is only for the fleeting moments I do have to myself as I don't like watching movies, t.vs to pass time. I write because I do have a story to tell, I don't care how. So if my story gets heard, it's all cool. Maybe it was different for some other writers but that was my reason for writing.
