Have you heard about Kindle Vella? It's an Amazon platform where you can read episodes from stories and novels. Each "episode" is similar to a chapter in a novel--but a short one. Most of the episodes I've looked at are about 1500 to 2000 words long. Instead of book covers, you see circular graphics for the stories like this one.
The first two episodes of any story are free, after that you can buy "tokens" for reading more. A 2000-word episode costs 20 tokens. There are various amounts of tokens you can buy, but one is 200 tokens for $1.99. You can also get 250 tokens for free when you first sign up--I received a promotional email that doubled that number. You can buy larger blocks of tokens for slightly less.
The royalty you receive from readers who spend their tokens on your story is minuscule, but my research shows that Kindle pays bonuses just for posting episodes, though I don't know how to calculate what they might be. One writer earns several hundred dollars per week.
I'm going to try Vella for a couple of my novels and will inform you here of when an episode is posted. I'm thinking two episodes per week, about 2000 words each.
You can learn more and sign up here. If you have an Amazon account, that's all you need to sign up for Vella. I assume that creating an Amazon account if you don't have one is required.
So check it out, and expect to see me there soon.
For what it's worth,
