As I mentioned in my last post, I started a Patreon account. For those unfamiliar with Patreon, let me explain what it is.
Patreon is a website where creators like artists and writers are supported by their fans/friends. The creators post content (drawings, excerpts from writing, etc) and then Patrons (their fans/friends) pay a certain amount per month to view this content. It's really a brilliant thing to be able to support a creative friend in their endeavor to become successful.
I decided to get one going this spring and see what happens. I haven't had much of a chance to post as many things as I'd like to, but I'm working on getting more content available. As of right now I have several things for the monthly $1 and $2 levels, and a handful of things for the rest. It took awhile for me to work out the details of what I have to offer for which level, but I think I've finally gotten that figured out.
Are you interested in what I'm offering on there? Well, here's a list of all the tiers and what you can get if you sign up to be my Patron:
$1 level
• Monthly updates, early cover reveals, poems, and tiny teasers from a WIP
$2 level
• Essays on writing, authoring, and randomness
$3 level
• Longer snippets from my fiction WIP
$4 level
• Character/town naming and page long excerpts from a WIP
$5 level
• Full unedited chapter from a WIP and occasional swag envelopes
$6 level
• A monthly positive note, 25% off Etsy code to my shop
$8 level
• Monthly Q&As and 25% off PA work through Sunrise Author Services
$10 level
• Named in acknowledgements and an occasional bubble mailer of swag
Every level also includes the perks of the levels under it. So if you choose to do the $3 level, you'll also receive everything from the $1 and $2 levels, too. If you'd like to know more details of what I'm sharing on there, please take a look at this page.
That's all for today! I'll be sharing more stuff all through July on the blog, including pictures from the Glass City Author Event and the Blue Water Author Event I went to last weekend. Plus, other random news.
Don't forget to make sure you're subscribed to my newsletter because there's a new one coming out this weekend that includes a giveaway!
