IMPORTANT - Some Possible Changes to The Patreon Structure
Added 2023-08-21 12:20:32 +0000 UTCHey folks. There is a structure I've had on my mind for quite some time for this Patreon. It's a structure of book previewing, instead of advanced chapters like the current setup. To explain how that would work, currently, I follow (or try to) a schedule for two stories, Qi, and RotD. Both provide chapters here on the Patreon at the same time to read ahead of the public releases at different tiers. $10 for single story. $15 for both.
The new structure would provide this access within a single $10 tier. Wherein, I will work on a single book at a time. For now, this would be RotD book 2, and I will finish this book, and upload the chapters here for all of you to read through. And when this book ends, I will start working on Qi book 3, writing just that till it ends, and back on RotD again.
The reason for a change like this is because in my experience, I enjoy writing a story much more when it's the one I'm focusing on, I also think I write faster and more content when I am focusing on one series at a time. My recent experience writing to the end of Qi's book 2 is mimicking this experience for me.
Switching like this to a different story after every book also allows me to get some much needed space between books, which allows me to freshen up on ideas.
That said, I obviously wanted to get opinions here first about what you may think of a release setup like this.
Hypothetically speaking, if I was going to implement a setup like this, I would be writing RotD book 2 right now, at a rate of between 7-10 chapters a week. I'm not promising that it will be that many. It could be less, or more. But that's the general idea, 7-10 chapters a week till the book is done, before I jump to Qi book 3.
Let me know what you think of this, and if you have some suggestions of your own.

I really like this idea, wouldn't mind if the tier was like $12 instead of $10 personally so that you retain revenue a bit better but I also like money so am happy. I also like the idea of the new schedule, I think it'll result in higher quality overall and as a person I enjoy binging so getting more concentration on a singular book sounds quite appealing to me.
