IMPORTANT! Restructuring Patreon!
Added 2017-11-07 21:00:03 +0000 UTCHey everyone! There's was a huge tech problem on the forum where we usually post our stories and a lot of our free content was lost. So we are taking the time to restructure our Patreon to lessen the impact.
Patreon is sort of hard, we are learning. We want to be able to provide as much of our content as possible to as many people as possible, but we still want to entice donations. I wish I could say that we are now getting paid for something we used to do for free, but with captions and live-writing, we have doubled our investment to get to this point.
I hate changing the Patreon tiers - I feel like I'm going back on a promise! - but I have a feeling this won't be the last time we do it. But I promise to try to make any changes moving forward as fair as possible!
So what's different?
- The $1 tier is mostly for support now. The four stories that had PDFs/ePubs on the $1 tier are now free, alongside four new stories and four captions! These are basically a "getting to know us" package and it means I don't have to re-post all of them on the forums!
- The $1 tier will still retain early free captions.
- All future PDFs/ePubs are moved to the $5 tier.
- The $5 tier will start having exclusive story content as well as caption content! Pudding is going to post a few solo stories in the coming weeks and Untrained will be exclusive to Patreon. We already have plans to release alternate endings to future stories as Patreon exclusives. We wanted the $5 tier to really be all-access.
- Discord is now offered formally in the $10 tier alongside commissions. This means we can also get closer with our fans, which is awesome! And you guys can get to know us too. And if you wanted to share any of your own writing with us we would love to have a look.
- Lastly, we have a new tier where a patron gets to write a story with us! This is sort of scary because we have only done this kind of thing a few times before, but we want to try some new experiences!
Okay, that's all! I hope this wasn't too overwhelming and it shouldn't affect any current patrons! ^_^ Again, thank you so much for your support!
