REMEMBER: All the "Don't use em-dashes" "don't use rule of three" advice because it makes your writing "look like AI" is because they stole actual writers work, and their "predict the next thing" stuff just simulates what WE FUCKING DO. Keep writing well. Use every style and trick you have. Fuck AI.

a vgen commission quoted at $1200 USD. the vgen service fee (5%) takes $60 USD. stripe's payment processing fee (2.6% + 30c) takes $35.10 USD stripe's international payout fee (2%) takes $24 USD. leaving the artist to receive $1080 from the original $1200.
