My NewsBreak Earnings were 5x My Medium Earnings in December

This keeps happening

In what has now become a regular and predictable occurrence, my NewsBreak earnings in December dwarfed my Medium earnings.

I LOVE the writing I do here on Medium. I can experiment with topics I like, write about serious issues, and even share personal stories.

But I also appreciate the opportunity to earn from my writing.

On NewsBreak, I write short pieces (250–500 words) and get paid at what has become a relatively reliable rate each month.

Money, of course, buys time. Earning money from writing gives me more time to write because it means I don’t have to accept other work that’s not writing in order to support my writing habit.

I’ve written recently about how I also use NewsBreak to build a daily writing habit.

I also recently read this great piece by Judy Derby that details how NewsBreak gets your content in front of readers.
