I really, really do!) putting them on the internet for free doesn't pay the bills.\n\nWhoa, whoa, don't go anywhere! \u0026nbsp;This isn't what you think!\n\nMy books are free, and they're going to remain free. \u0026nbsp;But I may just have a solution to both of our problems. \u0026nbsp;You've heard of Paypal, right? \u0026nbsp;Well, I've set up a donation page on there so that all you fine, lovely, beautiful, awesome,\u0026nbsp;_GENEROUS\u0026nbsp;_people could, y'know, fork over all the copious pocketfuls of cash I know you have.\n\nHey, get your mouse away from that X button! \u0026nbsp;Keep reading!\n\nThis isn't just about me. \u0026nbsp;Remember when I mentioned my update schedule? \u0026nbsp;A whole three paragraphs ago? \u0026nbsp;Well, this is where that comes in. \u0026nbsp;You see, for every $20 I receive on Paypal, I'll put a new chapter up. \u0026nbsp;That's it, a new chapter right then and there. \u0026nbsp;And why stop there? \u0026nbsp;If I get $40, I'll post two chapters! \u0026nbsp;If I get $60, I'll post three! \u0026nbsp;If I get $100, I'll pinch myself because I must be dreaming. \u0026nbsp;And that's in addition to the free weekly chapter that\u0026nbsp;_I'M GOING TO CONTINUE TO DO NO MATTER WHAT.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;_This is\u0026nbsp;_NOT_\u0026nbsp;mandatory in any way, shape, or form! \u0026nbsp;This isn't me begging for money (okay, yes it is) it's me offering an exchange. \u0026nbsp;Who knows? \u0026nbsp;If I get enough donations, I may be able to post\u0026nbsp;_THE ENTIRE FREAKING BOOK ALL AT ONCE!_\n\nSo what say you, friends and fans? \u0026nbsp;Can you find it in your hearts and your deep, deep pockets to help out a poor, miserable bum like me? \u0026nbsp;If so, head on over to\u0026nbsp;_paypal(dot)me/thisadamguy\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;_(direct link in the comments below). \u0026nbsp;Happy holidays, and happy giving me money!\n\n~Adam Bolander\n\n  \n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"The Gray Ranger: Unforgiven","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1270736-the-gray-ranger-unforgiven-chapter-five.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1273592-the-gray-ranger-unforgiven-chapter-six.json"}}
