silverr: abstract art of pink and purple swirls on a black background (Default)

I guess what I find objectionable about this situation is that it doesn't feel that far removed from extortion (e.g., secret #3), but then again, there are one or two writers who I'd toss a little bit of money at if they'd wrap up certain stories.

Still, "pay2fic" does feel different to me than commissioning a piece of fanart, becuse in general the artist draws what I specify. What grills my cheese in this secret is the "maybe have some influence over the focus of the chapter" thing that you're describing, OP, but again, that's just me.

(ETA: Letting different people pay for and steer the focus of each chapter feels almost CYOA-ish to me.)

Agreed. If they're going to offer fic for commission, each person should get to prompt their own fic.

What if this person pays for their chapter but the whole fic is still never finished? That sucks. No one pays for a piece of an artwork.
