But five cents is passive income if it came from stories you wrote. I’ve seen some passive income filter through in the pennies and larger cents. I believe if you keep providing well-structured articles that provide value to the reader then you’ll gain an audience. It may not always be as large and robust as someone else’s, but I’ve got in my drafts a topic on audience building never stops.

I became a fan of country singer Ronnie Milsap several years ago thanks to YouTube. I knew of him in the ’70s as a kid who heard country music by accident, but tried to avoid it. I know you and I don’t want to wait 40 years for rabid followers, but he already had a large fan base and I simply supplemented his.

Thanks for your piece, Brianna.
