Q&A, patron credit and other stuff
Added 2024-09-07 18:29:11 +0000 UTCSome small updates:
I previously mentioned I was considering giving patrons credit in chapter posts. I've decided to do that. This would only affect Reach Heaven Through Feng Shui Engineering...., because The Summoned Hero Is A Historical Materialist?? is currently a fanfic, and making money from fanfic is a legal gray area. Royalroad had previously already prohibited having patreon links on fanfic chapters, which means I could only credit people on SV, and that just seems strange. But if you think otherwise and want to be credited exclusively on SV - put a comment down.
This means I need to know how to credit you (wherever it's your patreon username or something else)! Please send me a message on Patreon or discord about it. By default, I would avoid putting people into these notes to preserve their privacy.
Eventually I'd make some kind of banner for this, which I think would look cooler. But not now.
I am introducing a new type of post - a Q&A with the characters. You can send me questions you'd like the characters to answer (be it characters from FSE or from the Summoned Hero) and occasionally I'd put together a short non-canonical chapter where they answer these questions. E.g. you can ask Linghui Mei wherever she enjoys taking care of rabbits or ask Melty what is her taste in dresses. I reserve the right to veto questions relevant to future (but not past) plot and ones that involve too much worldbuilding.
There is now also a channel on discord where you can do the same, potentially with a faster response time
To ask the question, once again, patreon message or discord message or discord channel.
All questions are valid, especially joke ones.
This applies to both fics - FSE and SHHM - but with a bit of a difference. For FSE, this would be just a post. For SHHM, I already had a big Q&A chapter planned at the end, and all the questions will get added there. The higher your tier, the fancier will be the description of the person taking your place and asking the question.
Anyone can ask questions, paid or free doesn't matter. The chapter will also be available to everyone.
