I make $2,000+ each month writing about dark topics.

Over the last few years, I’ve written about dark, troublesome, or taboo topics that have earned me a good living.

The idea for this post came from another article I read recently called, Dark Topics Earn Big Money. That article got me thinking about my biggest earners.

Many of them cover manipulation, sex, and murder.

Others are about less controversial (but just as troublesome) issues with more mundane objects in our everyday life.

In this article, I want to share with you how I make money writing about dark topics — and how you can, too.

What Are Dark Topics?

Any topic can be a dark topic if you explore it in the right way.

Dark topics can be very effective for writing, as they evoke a strong emotional response in the reader. Some possibilities include writing about death, violence, abuse, and other types of dark and disturbing subject matter.

The first step is to find a dark topic that scares or disturbs you and explore it in depth.
