Creative workers need your help.

Content is king. But writers are scum.

Creative workers are the backbone of a massive global industry. They’re regularly exploited, abused, and discarded. They operate without a safety net. The last 20-years we’ve seen their major revenue streams gutted by greedy media giants and ruthless global expansion. Unions attacked, royalty destroyed, publishing gutted, rights stripped away, wages stagnant.

C-19 has absolutely decimated creative workers. It’s impossible to get unemployment, loans, or any kind of stimulus. We’re on our own with our meager savings. Some of us don’t even have that and are standing on bread lines.

I’ve watched this deteriorate for twenty years. It’s reached a killing ground for creative careers. It’s always the same. In return for the opportunity to use your creativity you’re expected to inhale massive hours of crunch time for low wage returns. And mostly we put up with it for the opportunity to work on the great game, the killer show, get into the spotlight and drink the mother’s milk of all creative workers — recognition. Like you can eat a gold statue.
