Hi folks!
I'm just making this announcement to make sure you're all aware that this Patreon has been converted to a Monthly Subscription Patreon. I have frozen this billing cycle, so existing members will not be charged until the 1st of August if they choose to remain through this change.
When I announced that I was joining the Forgotten Adventures team and could no longer maintain this Patreon in November 2023, I mentioned that I would swap to the Monthly Subscription model as soon as Patreon would allow me to, as I wanted to keep the Patreon up as an archive for all my maps, but didn't want the downside of effectively being forced to provide the culmination of thousands of hours of work for free.
Aside from the fact that I still have several people sign up every week and download my maps for free, recently I discovered someone on Etsy had made €3,400+ selling physical copies of my maps, and I decided I needed to better protect my work, so I contacted Patreon to ask about the Subscription model.
I was meant to have an opportunity to warn my Patrons in advance, but the change was put into effect immediately. I paused billing as soon as I found out, of course, and to reiterate, existing members will not be charged until August 1st, but feel absolutely free to cancel your membership if you do not wish to be charged for continued access to this map archive - there won't be any hard feelings, though I greatly appreciate anyone who decides to stay even for a single payment.
Thank you for everything, folks - I wouldn't be where I am today without your support.

I absolutely do not blame you for protecting your work. You spent countless hours perfecting your craft and curating some absolutely fantastic maps and artwork. Shame on whoever sold your work as their own. I know I'm going to stay. You absolutely deserve to be compensated for your work. =)
