Blog Entries - from the heart versus Blatant Commercial Propaganda

Okay, so don't get me wrong. I'm not taking a side here and I don't know how many people actually read the blogs. (Is there a counter somewhere?)

But, here's a money generating scheme to shore up BigCloset.

A lot of the content here is heartfelt, personal entries. Those make good reading. Another set of postings are about the authors' trials and tribulations about posting their stories here. Also, good reading. Another lot is blatant ads for books for sale on Amazon with links to purchasing those said books. (I do hope those links do give a small sliver of the sales to BC.)

So. Why. Not. Charge. A. Small. Amount. Or. Require. A. Donation. Every. Time. You. Place. A. Notice. Self. Promoting. A. Book?

After all, the elaborate jpg and all the promotion info take up space here (bandwidth). How about a $5 donation for each notice?

I think that long ago when the news was printed on paper and sold to people each day, these self-promotions were called Ads. (My parents told me this. I am too young to remember those times)
