1/ This is a thread that expands on the concept of "Link In Bio" (since not one person in world history has ever gone to a link in bio on their own) and will be my pinned tweet. People often ask how they can buy my comedy work or support my work for free! Answers in thread!
2/ I have 2 comedy specials on @NetflixIsAJoke "I'm Gonna Die Alone (& I Feel Fine)" (2015) & "Just Keep Livin'" (2017) I got paid (not millions, not close) at the time & no I don't get paid every time you watch. But any *new view is great & simply tells Netflix I'm still viable.
3/ My special "I'm Gonna Die Alone" exists as a digital audio album you can buy. I do see this money & so does the indie record label it's partnered with. BUY at: https://tinyurl.com/2u3ygtpk or find places to STREAM it like Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/drpyxpzb (I get a % of residuals)
4/ My special "Just Keep Livin'" is a digital audio album w/ *BONUS stuff not on Netflix. I tell the true story of each joke. I split this $ with my indie label @aspecialthing records. BUY here: https://tinyurl.com/8jtpvtph or STREAM free: https://tinyurl.com/5yvcevp3 (I get % residuals)
5A/ My book "I Can Barely Take Care of Myself" a funny memoir of not wanting kids is available in paperback or e-book. FOR WAYS TO BUY GO HERE: https://tinyurl.com/3zcsemk3 (See next tweet for the how the sales work caveat)....
5B/ If you buy the book today, it goes towards overall sales which helps with me earning EVENTUAL residuals & sales affects future book deals. It's more like if 5,000 people bought it today - it would make an immediate difference. Buying used doesn't help.
6/ My book "I Know What I'm Doing..." a memoir of turning 40 & more is available in paperback or e-book. FOR WAYS TO BUY GO HERE: https://tinyurl.com/3zcsemk3 (Same how-sales-work caveat as the above tweets about my other book)
7/ Both books come in an AUDIO BOOK (read by me), but I don't push them cuz I had vocal chord probs those years & HATE my rasp! But here ya go:

8A/ I have a free weekly PODCAST @jenkirkmanpod called "NO FUN: THE Jen Kirkman PODCAST" - 8 years now. (Used to be called "I Seem Fun") It's a solo podcast where I talk about my life - it's funny & serious. And my *favorite* thing I do. Get it here: http://jenkirkman.com/podcast
8B/ Money? There are ads on my podcast but right now that just covers the network I am on. Not pocketing. But the more people who subscribe, the more popular it is, the more popular it is the more ads and I can tour with live shows. So this is a great FREE way to support.
9/ PATREON. I monetize my podcast by offering a paid version on Patreon (starts at $5 a month). It offers a weekly video version, weekly. bonus audio episodes, & bonus audio stand-up from the road. This is half my income replacing touring & I doing it. http://patreon.com/jenkirkman
10/ ANXIETY BITES. I wrote a 55 page PDF booklet, a few newsletters, to help folks with anxiety. It's FREE & here: http://jenkirkman.com/anxietybites I accept donations for that work at http://buymeacoffee.com/jenkirkman or you can buy one of my relaxation classes $8 at: https://tinyurl.com/7zp8ue96
11/ MERCHANDISE. I do have an online merch store at Tee Public but I don't keep a penny of that money. I donate the portion of my proceeds I split with them to charity. In 2021 it all goes to food banks across America. So shop away but I'm not keeping it. https://tinyurl.com/y78rsbye
12/NEWSLETTER. I have a free weekly newsletter I email to you. Subscribe here: https://tinyurl.com/6ezjz6t8 How this helps? You're updated on what I'm selling/doing & online shows/live shows you'll be the first to know. Having lots of subscribers proves my viability to other projects.
