What's the payscale for that? Is it salary? Hourly? Is it like freelancing where you're paid by the fanfic? Or is it chapter to chapter?

Same!

LOL! I guess technically yes. I had a good routine worked out where I would take apart all the computers in the classroom, blow out the dust, put them back together, and turn them on to make sure everything worked. Then, to be real thorough, I would read a chapter or two... you know, just to make sure the internet was hooked up right. ;) Then I would clear the history and move on to the next one.

I think it should be hourly or by chapter. Some fanfics are longer than others! Of course, if I was the one paying for someone to read my stories, I would say a flat rate per fanfic is fine. LOL

I actually worked out a system for this (in reverse) for one of my site's April Fools pranks, when I pretended to start making readers pay to access my stories. http://dreamers-sanctuary.com/af11_files/my_stories.html

Maybe a flat rate based on the word count?

LMAO! "If you want to think about Nick having cancer while you grill your burgers!" And the Braaaains for Breakfast, kudos for this shade. The merchandise and the Broken picturebook making a comeback were the best part.
