Yes, I'm seriously wondering about the wisdom of staying here. Nothing has earned more than a dollar except medium meta stories since 25 Sept, except one on Russia and one Halloween piece, but those only just scraped past the dollar mark. I get it that some of my stuff isn't high quality anymore. That's because the high quality stuff does nothing - as demonstrated by the high quality things I did publish being in the lowest earning categories in the past month, and my lack of willingness to put in hours of research for 50 cents.
Actually, I think I might elaborate on this comment and turn it into a story!
