My fear is that they dangle the carrot with a few decent ads. But as soon as they discover that the idea flies...bam. Ads all over the place.
So no, I don't want to support the idea. Even for a free reader it would be a tough sell to me because I don't like the idea of ads. I know some writers are already talking about putting certain brands in their books and wondering how to make money from it. Geez. I just want to write. Yeah, I know. I need to make a living and so do other writers. But I want to put a Toyota in because it goes with the character. Or an old dodge because it fits the down-on-his luck detective. Or a BMW or Lexus because it works, not because...someone paid me to mention the product.
I can see it now. I agree to write in a Lexus. But then the sponsor gets made because it turns out that the bad guy is driving the Lexus instead of the good guy...
