The check above? It’s real, one of thousands earned by the Founder of the Chronicles Publishing System(CPS) over decades of creating media that still pays today. From $50 to $158,000, those checks have added up to millions. Each one tells the same story: when you create meaningful content, the value lasts. Now, you could have his blueprint.
Become a Chronicles Publisher (CP) and own your local media brand, or join as an Associate Publisher (AP) and get paid to create. With the CPS tools and guidance, your efforts start earning from day one, and keep earning for years to come.
The Internet’s promise of giving everyone a voice is broken.
Local newspapers, as much as gone means no watchdogs. No hometown credible sources of information.
Just giant platforms feeding us their bias and swallowing the profits.
Creators keep creating, the revenue goes elsewhere and we the people are kept in the dark.
There’s a better way.
The Chronicles Publishing System (CPS) puts creators in control,
town by town, niche by niche.
Here, your work isn’t just a post.
You own it. You control it.
Not the algorithm. Not the platform. Not even us.
In fact, upon completion of your purchase, you’ll receive a Digital Deed of Ownership confirming your full rights to your channel, your content, your audience, your revenue.
And unlike social media, you don’t need a thousand followers to get paid.
With the CPS, cash flow can start the day you go live as a CP or AP.
Reclaim what’s yours.
Your voice. Your channel. Your publishing business.
Built to grow. Built to monetize.
No gatekeepers. No shadowbans. No demonetization.
You’re not just creating content—
you’re building equity.
CPS isn’t just a platform.
It’s a revenue engine, modeled on the same system the Founder used to generate millions in ad revenue over the past several decades.
Chronicles Publishers (CPs) license exclusive rights to operate their own local media channel using the CPS.
They lead the charge, earning almost immediately from local ad sales, channel fees, brand deals, subscriptions, endorsements, affiliate marketing, and more.
To get started, CPs and APs make a small deposit on their Chronicles Publishers License,
then budget the balance over a timeline that fits their situation.
There’s no revenue sharing. No royalty.
From day one, every dollar you earn is 100% yours.
Once the license is paid in full, you receive your Digital Deed of Ownership, a permanent record that your channel is fully owned by you.

The system works when you do.
And we give you the tools, the model, to succeed from day one.
According to The Tilt Creator Economy Report, the average YouTube creator takes 18+ months to earn enough to go full-time—if they ever do.
Most platforms reward views, not value. Creators chase algorithms and often earn pennies for their effort.
Why wait 18 months when you can earn while you build?
50 Towns. 50 Weeks. 50 Local Publishers.
The Founding 50 Tour is underway — it could come to your town.
In each city, the Founder meets personally with one committed CP candidate.
Together, they:
Set up a local publishing hub.
This isn’t guesswork. From 1990 to today, we’ve already built and tested publishing hubs in seven different states. The system worked the same way everywhere. We know it scales. We know it earns.
Recruit and onboard APs.
As the CP, you don’t do this alone. You’ll receive proven resources, including Selling Simplified (the Founder’s bestselling sales training), a full six-hour Sales & Persuasion audio course, and its companion PDF. You learn to lead and coach with confidence.
Launch a revenue-generating media platform using proprietary CPS tools.
Everything you need to know how to use the CPS tools is included in the Chronicles Publisher Operations Manual—a step-by-step playbook that guides you from day one to long-term success.
This isn’t theory. This is a system the Founder has been perfecting since 1976. Now powering over 100 live Opedia sites. Built for scale.
And the proof?
A single advertiser paid $158,150 for one media placement in one of his local publications.
Creators who are tired of working for algorithms.
Entrepreneurs who believe in their town and want to build lasting local media.
Writers, songwriters, podcasters, visual artists, and thinkers with something to say—and the courage to own it.
You don’t need to go viral.
You just need to go local—with a system that backs you.

Now, unlock the system he built. Make it yours.
I’ve been helped so much by the words of others, by songs, stories, poems, and sermons. By quiet wisdom tucked inside letters or spoken across tables. Sometimes not even spoken, just read in another’s eyes.
All that I write, all that I create, I do in the hope that these humble offerings might also find their way to someone who needs them.
If I were to live another hundred years and write a million messages, a hundred more songs, stories, or videos, and only one helped even one person the way others have helped me, I’d count that a good use of my time.
Please don’t mistake this for altruism. I don’t do it out of sacrifice. I do it because I’ve learned something simple and enduring:
It truly is more blessed to give than to receive.
When you give from the heart—your time, your talent, your story—you always receive something back. Not always in money. But in meaning. In healing. In joy.
This is the spirit behind the Chronicles Publishing Network.
We don’t build platforms so creators can chase views or likes.
We build them so everyday people; storytellers, artists, truth-tellers, niche enthusiasts, can earn a living while speaking from the heart.
We don’t just offer tools. We invite ownership.
We don’t just talk about community. We cultivate it, one town, one voice at a time.
ChroniclesOpedia is not a product. It’s a principle.
It says: You matter. Your voice matters. Your town matters.
And your words, songs, and videos, when offered with purpose, will make a difference.
We’re building a movement where creators no longer have to wait for permission, or algorithms, or luck. Where they no longer have to live in fear of being blocked, doxed, banned, or deplatformed.
They start where they are.
Serve who they know.
And grow from there. With a system designed to honor both their labor and their light.
To everyone who joins us, Chronicles Publishers, Associate Publishers, readers, listeners, contributors, believers:
Welcome.
We’re not just publishing content.
We’re restoring dignity to the act of creation.
And if one thing we build or publish ever reaches someone at the right time, in the right way…
Then yes.
It will all have been worth it.
