I Updated my Patreon Tiers

Greetings dear Patrons current, past, and potential.

 Michelle here.

Long story short, nothing has changed, but I added some tiers. Everyone who was a 'generous onlooker' until now is still just as generous and looking on just as much, but I changed your moniker to Precious Supporter. While it seems insignificant, I have some to truly value the patrons who have supported me, some for over a year (!!!), and realized that you are more than just onlookers. You are supporters and that is precious to me, sincerely.

Tier 2: Precious Supporter (3 bucks)

 Precious supporters have basically solidified the foundation of my confidence in my own work, spurred me to try new things and believe in myself, and enabled me to hone the discipline to keep writing and writing and writing and writing some more. Precious supporters from here on out, and the generous onlookers that have preceded them will remain the true wind in my sails.

Tier 1: Generous Lurker (1 buck)

 It isn't a glorious name, but the phrase lurker has a special place in my heart. It was something one of my parents often said and I am fond of it. Also, I am one of the biggest lurkers on the internet myself so camaraderie abounds. If someone wants to throw a buck my way and then drop back down to the free tier, I see that as an extremely kind gesture.

Tier 3: Swell Engager (5 bucks)

  I love engagement, but not everyone is into it, so basically I want to have quicker short polls and posts where more engaged readers can discuss ongoing stories and the directions they are going in. I will start out slow with one poll a week after some Swell Engagers appear and then we can go with the flow from there. If it ends up being too many cooks in the kitchen or grounds for arguments or something I might limit the tier to a certain number of people, but then again I may just sit behind my desk like Gendo and watch.

Tier 4: Bosom Buddy (Limit of 2, one per Bosom) (10 bucks)

 This is kind of an experiment. I don't often advertise my commission structure because I am lazy and mostly like to keep plugging along with my regular story writing, Patreon updates, etc. But I thought this might be an interesting way to encourage some folks who want all the Patreon benefits and to get a commission as well. We will see how it goes.

 Hopefully, this doesn't blow up in my face! I wanted to try a few new things and see how it goes.

Either way, thank you so much for all your support and interest in my writing.

Ta ta~
