OH MY GOD

OH MY GOD. Somebody put money in the tip jar for cityofthehand. OH MY GOD. I'm freaking out and having like hyperventilations of joy.

Whoever you are that put a tenner in the tip jar, I LOVE YOU FOREVER. I never thought anyone would, really. I only checked paypal on a lark. I was just glad to have the story out there and have a few people following it. Seriously. I just cannot even express how awesome this is.

I wrote a story and somebody liked it enough to give me money. This has never happened before.

This is seriously a big high point for me.

Also, my husband suggested that I offer those who put money in the tip jar the opportunity to get the entire novel as an ebook file (pdf or something) so they don't have to wait for the entire thing. Anyone think this is a good idea or not?

I kind of like the idea of having something to say, "Thank you person who put your hard earned money in my tip jar."

Thoughts?

I second that. And maybe bigger donation = more bonuses, like a very short side story/poem written specifically for the donator?

I liked your idea so much I'm using it. Right now anyone who puts in over $25 gets a short poem/story/essay of their choice.

And anyone who puts in over that gets...IDK. My first born child, immortal soul, night with me in Paris, who knows. I'd be surprised if anyone did.
