I know it's an American thingie to ask friends to read one's articles, etc. but actually one never asks one's Facebook friends for anything. The link for Ko-fi, Patreon, or anything else, goes at the end of your article.

I will put in every 5 or 6 articles. And I will get a few donations. I do have to earn.

What I have never done in all my years of writing is expect friends to read my work. My readers come from traffic I get on my site that the app sends to me, or that Google sends to me. That's it.
