Update going into December (SEE POLL)

Good evening everyone. Hope you're all doing well as we slink ever closer to Christmas. I'm not even slightly prepared for it! Shit! Ahh well, I'll wing it as I always do as we get closer.

First of all, new story links have been sent out! This one is a story involving some Shin Megami Tensei V characters that I'm pretty fond of, so I hope you guys enjoy it too. Honestly, give me a setting with two girls and one guy/girl with a huge freaking dong and I'll probably enjoy myself no matter what series it's based on.

As for the whole (SEE POLL) thing in the title of this update, I have put up a poll for all free and paid members to get an idea on if some stuff I was planning to do would be generally accepted. Those things are raising the price of the general tier of the Patreon, and adding some higher paid tiers with more content included.

What's this all about exactly? Well, my Patreon payments each month have never been my main source of income, my commissions have always done that for me. When I set up my Patreon it was mostly with the belief it would be little more than a tip jar because I honestly never saw myself getting a following as amazing as you guys who would actually pay me to write my silly little stories. As such I set the general Patreon tiers at very low prices. Even lower when you consider that I'm actually based in the UK. $3 is actually, like, £2.40 for us here.

My Patreon has slowly become something that's really helped me out, especially towards the end of the month. I also love doing the monthly stories as they let me write a bit more freeform than many of my commissions do. But as the prices of general stuff in the UK goes up, I've been taking on more commissions to compensate which leaves me struggling with the monthly story at times. While I always want the Patreon to have an accessible low cost tier that does work as a tip jar, I wanted to see if people would be willing to pay two dollars more each month for the poll and the monthly story itself. If the majority of people were okay with this, it would be a big boost for me each month, but I wouldn't want to do it unless a good number of people were okay with it.

As for the higher tiers, that kind of comes into the commission situation too. I've got a lot of commissions finished and waiting to be posted up, but posting everything up at once would be pretty bad for engagement so I often leave a few days before each story. I've never wanted to hide any of my stories behind a paywall, but there is another way of doing things. Just show you guys a few stories early before they launch to the public!

That would be the reward of the higher tier, and if people are interested there are more things I can offer. I brought up AMA's and writing advice because those are things I can offer pretty easily, but if there are other things people would be interested in paying for then I'd be happy to hear them!

Sorry for the long post, all. If you can let me know your thoughts, I would really appreciate. Or just ignore or all of this and just focus on the smut, I'd appreciate that as well! Honestly if you're reading this at all, I appreciate you! You made it a long way from the top of the post! Set up base camp here and set back for the summit in the morning.
