In general, put your income and expenses on Schedule C and complete schedule SE.

Actually, if it is a hobby you can still claim expenses, but only up to the amount of the income. What you cannot do is claim a loss. An IRS red flag is alledged (IRS does not disclose actual red flags) to be more than 3 consecutive years of losses from secondary occupations.
