Big Update!

Hello, my friends.

I wanted to take a moment to give some updates here about my stories and the future of my patreon—to be clear it is all good things.

OK, big news first:

I’ve signed on with the homies at Shadow Light Press to publish my stories. Wife After Death, Power Trio, and Princess of the Void (eventually) are all going to be professionally edited and cleaned up and put up for sale, on eBook and maybe hopefully physical and audio as well.

When I started writing a year ago I never thought that I would get this big, and frankly I’m kind of in over my head and need help, lol. Most authors who self-publish are some real one-stop-shops. Marketing, social media, commissioning and hiring and all that stuff. They do it all. I can’t do that, I’m afraid. This was only ever supposed to be a hobby while I did my fun and rewarding day job. I’m so freaking stoked to be working with the team over at Shadow Light to give these stories the spit and polish they need to keep growing.

I'll have more for you on all of this soon. But I am so excited to get you these stories in a form that I can be super duper 100% proud of and call Finished and Published. And hopefully voiced. I promise, audible chads. I am working on it.

As part of this I’m going to be reconfiguring the Patreon, introducing new tiers and stepping up my game to give you guys more stuff to enjoy.

The first step in this is going to be a bump from—

WAIT PUT THE PITCHFORKS DOWN.

Okay. For real though, I am going to be raising the price of the basic tier from 3 to 5 bucks, and the super pals from 5 to 8.99, FOR NEW USERS ONLY. My current pals, you are going to be able to keep your role for as long as you want it at the price you are currently paying. I owe that to you as thanks for believing in me and pushing me to where I’ve gotten now. But future members are gonna be paying 5 a month instead which is apparently the standard. I had no idea. That’s the kind of clueless I am.

The next step is going to be giving that 8.99 tier additional cool shit. Not sure what those are going to be yet but I’ll keep everyone posted and I promise that I will NOT be cutting back on what pals get--I've got no interest in the "you get 20 bonus chapters, they get 50 bonus chapters" malarkey. I'll just work extra hard to create even more. I will also have some rich people bonus ones at higher tiers for those who want to just be extremely fancy and show off their millions by pouring largesse on a confused little gremlin romance author. But more of that to come soon. The big change is the $5 thing, and if you’re reading this right now at $3 that will not affect you.

Okay. That’s about all from me for now. Thanks so much for everything you’ve done so far and all your support. It really leaves me breathless. Over on Royalroad we’re in the top 25 rising stars which is crazy for a book as off-meta as this one is with no litrpg or progression stuff in it. So thank you thank you thank you, and Glory to the Black Pike
