Promo: I Should Be Writing
Michael commented that everyone giving $1 would make a big difference, but I can't figure out how to give anything other than the set amounts on the donate button. What am I doing wrong?
Simple Dave,
Go to the top of the page here and click one time donation. Then type in the amount you wish to donate. It will take whatever amount you choose. That is how I have been doing it all these years.
Tim
Sorry,
It gives you that option on the Slice of Sci Fi page. Just go over there. It all goes to the same place.
🙂
