All in all, we’ve published 251 columnsarticles, and reviews so far in 2018.

Most of it freely available to you, dear reader.

Here’s what little money came in, and where our money was spent this month:

October 2018 Spiral Nature Financials

As you know, there are so many great things we want to do with Spiral Nature, but with our current losses, it’s simply not possible.

We had another surplus this month, this time a little bigger: $279! Thank you! A few more months like this, and might move towards breaking even this year. (Unfortunately, there aren’t that many months left.) This decreased our yearly shortfall to -$1,936. (This is, of course, on top of the thousands we lost last year, and in the years previous. All of which comes out of Psyche’s already pretty broke pockets. Sigh.) But, hey, it’s progress! Thank you!

We’d love to at least break even, or, even better, see a surplus so we can increase our payments to writers. (Yes, we want to pay people more. As much as we can, really.)

That’s where you (hopefully!) come in.

Membership

We’ve shared our premium membership offer, also known as the Occultnik cabal, with access to exclusive members only content with you before, and it’s starting to pick up again. Thank you!!

Courses

Our course offerings are in redevelopment as we work with new software to bring you a better experience, but you can expect to see excellent things in the near future.

Thanks for your patience!

Occultnk Bazaar

The Occultnik Bazaar is a place to advertise your occultnik services and wares at an entry-level price, and it is ideal for businesses that are just getting into advertising.

We will be offering 20 of these spots once a year, and that’s it. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

As this is the first time we’re offering this spot, we’re putting them on sale early for $90 for the first year, and the advertising will start now — so you get one month free if you book now.

Interested? Reserve your spot now.

Sponsored content

Did you know we publish sponsored content?

Sponsored content is a paid article published within the online magazine that is promoted via our social media. In print, and in other venues, this is also known as advertorial or native advertising. It is content paid for by a person or company to promote their products or services.

We work with our advertising clients to ensure that the products they want to promote to our readers match their interests and the goals of our magazine.

Interested in learning more? See our guide to sponsored content and check out our media kit.

We look forward to working with you!
