Comment on The economics of writing technical books

Comments

It would seem like the real $ in in Substack. Lots of writers making >$50k year of passive, recurring income to write maybe one or two articles a month. Good work if you can get it, compared to writing a full-blown technical book and earning less.

OTOH, from all the articles that get posted on HN, I know I'll have the worst reading experience when an article is from substack, because of their terrible website.
