The Plan: "Hypertext Studios"
(Salvo's Story)

This is not a re-imagined micropayment scheme. The economics of the hypertext studio are baldly capitalist, much like the drive of movie studios. Micropayment models saw each writer as an entrepreneur, which asked two different and possibly conflicting areas of expertise from each agent. Instead, the hypertext studio allows writers to be writers and capitalists to seek wealth.

Like other moneymaking ventures, the hypertext studio would be closely managed, using the same database structure that custom-delivers content to provide actively updated analysis of different writers' performance.
