If you have read my blog at all over the past year or so, you may of noticed the ads sitting underneath posts. Well I’m finally ditching them in favour of a donation system. Go on, look at the bottom of the post. See any advertisements? Of course not.
So that’s where this comes in. In the top corner is a can of coke. If you click it, it will take you to a donation page where you can send me a whole Australian dollar if you enjoy my writing. I got the idea from Rubenerd, who does the same thing but with coffee. Considering I probably drink a lot more coke while writing than he does coffee, that a similar thing could work here. Every fortnight I have to pump money out of my bank account in order to pay for this website into my PayPal. If I got a dollar donation, that’s one less dollar I have to pay for the hosting, which is money that can be spent on fuel coke.
Of course, you don’t have to do a damn thing, and still continue reading everything I write. It doesn’t bother me, but if you decided to shout me a drink via PayPal, I’d be grateful.
Of course I’d prefer you to donate to something with a bit more purpose than me, such as Blood:Water Mission (please do), but I can’t tell you where to spend your money. I’m thankful either way, as long as you read and enjoy my writing, I’m happy. You could also of course, donate to Rubenerd. His stuff is 10 times more interesting to read than mine, and is more often than not, slightly more inspired and informative. Not to mention the occasional reference to grilled cheese sandwiches, and the word.
As an added plus, if you click on the can of soup, you’ll be greeted with something that has provided endless chuckles for me, and should for you if you are the fan of his that I am. In fact, if you click on the can of soup, that totally beats donations hands down.
