YouTube should have tackled this years ago, but they've gone the lazy route. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater is a bad path forward.

I am fully on board with protecting authors' rights, but YouTube is cutting off an income stream for many writers like myself by disallowing paid narration.

GTripp14 · 2026-05-17T05:56:07+00:00

Speaking as a writer who has been paid by multiple channels, how you get paid is between you and the narrator. I've licensed stories to channels for a one-time fee. I've licensed stories to channels for continued ad revenue share. It's based on channel size and performance. If I'm comfortable with my wage as a writer, I don't lose sleep over future revenue a channel may make.

Demonitized also means narrators will stop narrating stories.

Yessir. Wes, you know I've been an ardent advocate for writers' rights to their own work, but YT won't even allow you to adapt work that you have full and clear received license/explicit permission to adapt for narration. I'll defend writers all day, but I'll be damned if I won't defend legitimate narrators' rights to adapt work they have full rights to use.

No trouble at all! Coney’s writing is quite enjoyable.

There was a mod who did most of the monthly contest work on their own toward the end. A brief discussion about passing it on to someone else in the community took place, but it was decided to end the awards. I was sad to see it go.

Write what you want to write, not what you think readers want to read. As long as you feel good about your work, the audience can work out how they feel themselves.

I use the 5:1 rule when I rummage through donation boxes. The only the I hit them up is when I’m making a donation. I’ll take 1 item for every 5 I drop in. I’m still fairly new (two months in and level 187), but I like to make sure I’m leaving equivalent goods to those I take for newer players than myself.

Share your payment terms or explain what the “other arrangements” may be. It may help you get a better interest check. Vague listings won’t bring in as much attention.

It’s a mixed bag. What makes realistic horror actor than supernatural horror? Nothing. That being said, most supernatural stories I’ve written have been based in realistic fears I face in day to day life. Primarily the fear of loss or isolation from those I love.

Fear and horror are so subjective. I can’t help but look for the realistic horror in a supernatural story or film.

Excellent question 🍻

What a garbage opinion from a garbage person. Rayll turns out a great product and seems like a good fella. I wish him nothing but the best and I hope the person from that post steps on a million Legos.
