\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe new author monetization system is almost here. The idea is simple: give authors more control over how they monetize their stories, while giving readers a flexible way to keep reading.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tHow Does It Work?\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAuthors will be able to choose exactly where the paywall starts in their story.

Once a reader reaches a locked chapter, they can use QUIBs to unlock it and keep reading. And if they run out of QUIBs? They can either get more or wait 24, 48, or 72 hours for the next chapter to unlock for free.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tHow Do You Make Money Writing Web Novels?\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThere\u2019s no single recipe for making money from a web novel. Authors commonly use subscriptions, tips, advertising, book sales, or paid chapters. Some keep the whole story free and monetize elsewhere; others put part of the story behind a paywall.

One thing is worth keeping in mind: readers generally need enough of the story to decide whether they want to pay for more.<\/strong>

Putting a paywall too early can make it harder for a new reader to discover what your story is about.There\u2019s no magic number of free chapters, either. It depends on the genre, story length, posting frequency, and how the story unfolds.

Basically: give people a proper chance to discover your work, then let them decide how they want to continue.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tYour Stories, Your Numbers\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAuthors will also get a dedicated dashboard showing things like unlocked chapters, monthly earnings, and plenty more where that came from.

Payouts will be processed and transferred monthly, so you\u2019ll be able to see how your stories are performing and what they\u2019re earning.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tWe Know You Have Questions\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProbably a lot of them. So we\u2019ll also be giving the website another makeover and creating a dedicated page that explains the monetization system properly. \n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\n\t\t\tWho Can Use It?\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe system will be available to Quibble authors generally, provided our payment partner supports payouts in your country.

For everyone who\u2019s been waiting for a way to actually earn from their stories on Quibble, this is the beginning. QUIBs have the first use case\u2026 and it\u2019s not the last one. 

More soon. \n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
