Final AMA Stream? And New Reward Proposal
Added 2022-10-08 19:41:59 +0000 UTCHi friends,
I've been receiving feedback for a while now that many patrons aren't as enthusiastic about the AMA streams as they used to be. The main issues seem to be that they're repetitive (a lot of the same questions come up across multiple streams), and that they're excessively parasocial (the format enables people to ask personal questions, treat the streams as a therapy substitute, etc).
I could use a change of pace myself, and I think it would be worth trying out a new type of Patreon-exclusive content. What I have in mind is copying my fellow YouTuber Jenny Nicholson, who posts monthly "Rambles"—basically vlogs about topics that higher tier patrons can vote on.
I would call my vlogs "Tangents," after my tendency to get sidetracked in AMA streams. 2+ patrons would get access to monthly Tangents, 15+ patrons would get to vote on the topics for them. I envision these as mostly unscripted vlogs with simple editing, not unlike the main channel videos I made five or six years ago.
These would be a bit more work for me than the AMA streams, but my guess is that they would also make your Patreon subscription more worthwhile, and that to me is worth it.
Regardless, I will still do one final AMA stream this month (will post the stream link and question invite in a few minutes), and of course I value your feedback above all else.
Would you like to try out "Tangents" as a replacement for the AMA streams? We could always switch back to the AMA reward if Tangents turn out to be less popular.
Let me know what you think! And thanks as always for your support!

Kept my Brutish, hairy, stinky lover awake just now with me loudly laughing at so much of this. Potentially laugh a minute even! 🌅 I must have lost more than half of my concentration span since you last uploaded, because it’s taken me this long to finish. Two weeks!!! Nearly had to slow the speed down! Ugh I need to read more books… anyway. The absolute best content from my favourite, much worth the wait sweetheart. Keep doing those gorgeous colour backdrop moments. We stan!

I remeber showing my dad your videos and he was so amazed that ”she can just talk this fluently snd effortlessly about really complex topics for so long!” And i was like I mean she has a script. But these tangents really do seem completely free form, it’s so impressive
