A tip disappears. A letter gets an answer.
Your biggest fans don't want to tip you into the void — they want a reply. On Hotly they send a letter with money attached and wait for your day. You answer once a week and keep 100%, forever.
June's Letters
One letter, answered.
Bailey, I've read your Tuesday letters for two years. The one about quitting quietly got me through last March. I'm thirty pages into something and I can't tell anymore if it's worth finishing. Could I show you the first page?
Bailey answered · 9:40am, over coffeeSend it, Dana. Page one is where most people quit — the fact that you're on page thirty tells me plenty.
A letter with money attached isn't a tip. It's someone saying: this is worth answering.
Bailey's first 60 days: $22,000.
A letter runs $5–$16. A single $10 letter covers the $9.99 lifetime seat.

why $9.99 exists
we're five people building this in public beta. we could raise more money, or we could find 100 creators who want this to exist as badly as we do.
$9.99 isn't the real price — it's a handshake. you pay it once, keep the desk for life, and never share a dollar with us again. you keep 100%, your fans are screened before they ever reach your desk, and your email list is yours to walk away with. that's the deal, plainly.
What if someone sends something inappropriate?
What if I miss my day?
