Updated Patreon tiers!

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to let you know I updated the various Patreon tiers. Not any major changes, but a couple of small things that people might be interested in. We now have five tiers available:

The Early Supporter tier at $1.50 for those of you that supported me from the start. You will always have full access to Patreon content for that amount. This tier is now closed, so only those who supported me during my first year as a writer qualify!

Then the Uncommon Level Supporter at $3 per month!

This Patreon is mostly for fans to support me as an independent, self-published author. I will try to also post regular updates on what I am working on.

I don't do chapter by chapter releases, but I WILL release the first five chapters for every upcoming book early ONLY for my Patreon subscribers (once the book is ready so typically a few weeks before publishing date). I don't plan to share the chapters in advance anywhere else.

Also, I will release sneak peeks of my covers, maps, and any art I commission here first before I share the covers on other social media. Anything else I think of I will try to always post it here first so you get a chance to see it before anyone else.

Finally, Patreon supports can message me any time and I am happy to chat about anything - the books, life, spoilers, writing advice, whatever you want to talk about! And you can join my Discord server with a special title and a unique color to your name to indicate that you are a Patreon supporter!

Oh, and I will try to reach out to select Patreon members to offer them Advanced Reader Copies in return for leaving a review on launch day for each upcoming book. That should let you read the book about a week or two before it officially launches!

Thank you to everyone who supports me. Your contributions help me to continue writing and mean the world to me.

Rare Level Supporter at $4 per month!

This tier has all the benefits of the Uncommon Supporter Tier but with a higher Discord title and even MORE unique color to your name. Mainly for people that want to add a little extra to their support. Thank you so much!

Legendary Level Supporter at $10 per month!

For those that REALLY want to give a little extra. You get all the same benefits of the lower tiers and even more recognition on Discord. You are amazing!

(Still trying to see if I can find something else to add to this tier as a benefit for people that subscribe at this level.)

Artifact Level Supporter at $20 per month!

What are you doing? You should be saving for retirement or something! Invest in your 401k already!

But seriously, thank you for such an amazing display of support. All I can really offer is an even more unique title on my Discord at this tier, but ... ya know what ... if you pledge at this amount and want to read a beta copy of an upcoming book you can message me and I will send it to you in advance if at all possible.

(Disclaimer: I can ONLY send it out when I have at least finished the rough draft of the book and one editing pass, otherwise it will be such a mess you won't even want to read it!)

(Second Disclaimer: If you get an early copy of the book DO NOT share it or post it anywhere or I will change the ending of the book to a huge cliffhanger involving your favorite character and then never finish the series.)

As an outside observer I love the second disclaimer threat, as an reader it's a frightening thought to contemplate though I can't say I'm not morbidly curious.

Oh yeah, that is a good idea! Not sure if people would enjoy reading it on a google doc, but that would be a safe way to handle it.

You could do a Google doc with limited accessibility like "View only" for the beta thing. Prevents people from ripping it, lets people read it early, AND once the real thing is out; you can just take it down to comply with that "Should be illegal, monopolistic, and totally get people thrown in prison" Kindle exclusively policy. Just saying. It's not like I would like one of those or anything I mean. πŸ™‚πŸ™ƒπŸ˜‰πŸ€πŸ˜§
