Preliminary Opening
🕑 Added 2021-10-11 20:18:59 +0000 UTCAs many of you know, I've long memed about fleecing internet bucks from hapless fans. Well as it it turns out, real life is a bitch and it's time for meme fiction to become meme fact. The call goes out: give me money.
But a few important details first.
1. No quest or content will ever be behind a paywall. If you want to support me, I want it to be because you like what I do, not because I tricked you into seeing what's behind some curtain. (The caveat being that if we get to the "Bare Bones" support tier, the short stories produced will be available only to patrons for a brief span of time before being made publicly available)
2. I calculated all goals and patron tiers with the express purpose of subsidizing a standard productive month of questing. I do not plan to significantly increase the amount of time I put into questing, rather this Patreon's intent is to decrease how much real life is able to eat into that ideal amount of questing. Conversely, this Patreon is not a threat to stop questing if I receive no support. I love doing this for its own sake and have run quests for years and years before now without ever receiving a dime of compensation. So be advised that while I won't be running any less, there's also a ceiling on how much I can do this to avoid creative burnout. If I'm not having fun, believe me, you won't be having fun either.
3. If over the course of any given month, if in my estimation I am not being productive in running quests and creating the kinds of stories I enjoy creating, I will not collect Patreon fees. Those in the know are aware of the sudden hiatuses I've gone on in the past. Rest assured that if you pledge your support, you will only be supporting me when I'm actually active. However, in accordance with point #2 on this list, one of the goals of this Patreon is to see if I can't make it so that I don't need to take those leaves of absence anymore.
So, onto other business.
While I don't have 100% of everything up on Patreon just quite yet, you will see from the write-ups of my funding goals that I do have a detailed plan - I recommend reading through some of these so you can see what I have in store if this winds up taking off.
Furthermore, only the most basic patron privileges have been detailed, and at this point, not all of these will be active till we meet certain goals. For example, until I see proof that people are actually interested in this Patreon to the level of the first support goal ($25) I'm not going to bother making a community discord, or keeping this Patreon regularly updated.
So okay, maybe that all sounds good, but what if you don't want to give me your money? What then? Well, the TLDR is that I'll probably be writing more smut and giving recommendations on where to find the good stuff if we achieve some of the lower tier goals, so that's what the future holds for you. Praise be to the wonders of capitalism!
And that's that.
If you'd like to support what I do, read through the patron tiers and pick the one that sounds about right to the level of power you'd like to put behind my cause.
If you have to choose between throwing money at me and paying your rent, though, please do the latter. Running sex simulators on the internet with strangers is more than irresponsible enough for me, I think.
Thanks to all of you for reading, playing, and discussing my quests over the years. I don't plan on stopping anytime soon. Anyway, back to writing.
