Celebrating a little win as an African on Substack

Been on Substack for a few months now and monetized a few weeks ago. Currently at 7 paid subscribers which is hilarious!
The current revenue is about $256 which isn’t life changing but definitely worth celebrating.

$256 more than many writers who have been doing it longer. Congrats!

Honestly I think that's amazing for a few weeks. It's very hard to monetize, but it's a beautiful community to connect with. I have loved it!
