Becoming a Web3 Author
I love being part of the traditional publishing world. I’ve made life-long friends, worked with truly beloved colleagues, and I am forever grateful for the relationships—and the seasons of my life—that grew from it.
But the future is calling and I'm excited to expand my audience. I’m thrilled to share my work in the Web3 space. I can’t wait to be even closer to my readers, who I absolutely adore. Connecting with you, sharing stories with you, and offering a place that feels safe and entertaining—a little haven at the end of a long day—is the very best part of being a writer. Web3 makes that kind of connection possible in a way that feels genuinely unprecedented.
In Web3, writers and readers can come together like never before. I truly cannot wait for that first Web3 sale—not for any monetary reason, but because it means a story I poured my heart into has found its way into the hands of the person it was written for.
I’m so excited. I’ll see you there.
LiteraryNFTs
Publishing LiteraryNFTs gives authors and writers another choice in publishing. Literary NFTs are a new and emerging option in the world of publishing.
These digital assets can be used to represent ownership of a piece of literature, such as a short story, poem, or novel, and can be bought, sold, and traded on blockchain marketplaces. Because each NFT is unique and cannot be replicated, they offer a way for authors to monetize their work in a new and innovative way.
Additionally, Literary NFTs can allow for a new level of interactivity and engagement with readers, as the NFT can include multimedia elements such as videos or audio recordings. Overall, Literary NFTs represent an exciting development in the publishing industry and offer a new choice for authors and readers to explore.

"FROM WEB2 TO WEB3 – FOR WRITERS" (article): w/ Medium – December 2022
If the traditional publishing path has you stuck—endless queries, slim royalties, and too little real connection—“From Web2 to Web3 — for Writers” offers a practical, uplifting way forward.
In this 7-minute guide, I try to break down what Web3 looks like for authors in plain language, and why it matters: more choice, more connection with readers, and the possibility of earning not only on the first sale, but on resales too.
What makes this piece land is the tone: it’s not hype, and it’s not gatekeep-y. It starts where so many writers are right now—discouraged, burned out, wondering if the dream is still possible—and then offers a practical path forward with small steps (follow the right communities, keep your Web2 presence) and bigger steps (Discords, Web3 publishers, collaborations, and new publishing models).
If you’ve been looking for a way to keep writing and build a future where your work can actually support you, this article is for you.
