I aim to make roughly $10 to $20 for my stories on NB. I'm not surprised when I earn $20 to $80. My highest earner caught me by surprise. It was on LA County and a fee being assessed to landlords. I think "pocketbook" issues do well there. Others write about specific stores, etc. I can't say I've got a real rhythm writing there but I do feel I typically earn more there per story than Medium.
