Patreon Benefits
Added 2019-05-29 16:20:19 +0000 UTCI'm going to be adjusting the Patreon membership levels in a bit.
While I want to keep the higher levels (even if there is no one on it), I might reduce the number a bit to only $20 and $50 sets.
Since I'm out of randomly written stories and half-stories, I need to adjust that portion. And, as many of you realise, I don't take a lot of suggestions for my writing. So... I'm removing all notice of that.
What I am thinking of adding is a 'signed copy' to the tiers. I'm just not sure what the rate should be. My cost for shipping a signed copy (not including time) is CAD$25 (about CAD$8-10 for the books, and anywhere from $15-20 for shipping cost).
My concern with that benefit is that it is timing. Not all my books (just most of them), get paperbacks. But those release about 4 times a year. So, even if I set the rate as $30, said patron's aren't getting much 'value'. On the other hand, setting it at say $20 means I'd lose money if someone joined and then left the moment I shipped an order out which kind of defeats the purpose.
So.
Benefits.
What do you want to see? At what rates? At what levels?
Signed copies - yes/no. At what level?
Suggestions welcome. Decisions... are mine. :P
