Iām very curious/anxious to see what the answer is for this soon, as I have just announced my own novel on my profile, which has garnered a group chat that has a few members interested in hearing updates. I also plan to provide more details/snippets/updates in the coming weeks and months on my journal. As more users think of using their experiences here as a launching pad for a creative project, the need to address this issue will only grow.
The biggest point of confusion I have is around monetization. It seems like things that are bright negatives include Patreon, Ko-fi, things like that that create an ongoing relationship through another site that would be difficult for BMR to moderate. But what are/should be the rules around linking out to separately purchased ebooks?
I suppose things would be murkier if the transaction is conducted on site (Iām not sure how that would work or what
@Revelations means by this though? Surely a hosted ebook link sent by PM isnāt āonsiteā?) However it seems like as long as users bear sole responsibility for commerce on external sites such as the Kindle, Nook, Kobo etc. stores everything should be fine, right?
