Image Blurb Guidelines

This post is to both explain what the Blurb idea is, and explain the rules behind it.First, what is an image blurb?The simplest answer is that someone gives me an image, I look at it, and I write out up to ~360 words of a story blurb that comes to mind while looking over it. Sometimes I get a great idea, sometimes I get a less great one, but I almost always get one. A lot of people find this usefu...

New Reward Explanations

Hello everyone. As promised, here’s the explanation for the new tiers that I put together for the patreon. Most of the prices are staying the same, but some of the rewards have been removed, and some have been altered. Let’s do a quick overview of those.Removed RewardsWe are no longer going to be doing ‘bonus stories’ for the month. I failed to deliver on those for far too long, and I don�...

New Reward Tiers (explained tomorrow)

After putting forth the new reward tiers to patrons on discord, they are mostly integrated here. I am putting off one change until October, but for now, the new rewards are posted under tier benefits. A full explanation of them all will be posted tomorrow morning/afternoon.Thank you for your patience.

Some New Ideas, New Directions

Hello, everyone.It’s been a long time since I posted anything here (since most of the stuff I do is on the discord [link here: https://discord.gg/BJsHntRj5g ]) but just in case there’s some people that wait for things here, a bit of a heads-up.I posted the full details on discord, but there’s been a snag with some organizational efforts that have kept me from doing the chapters I normally wo...

An Update to the Discord Link

https://discord.gg/BJsHntRj5gSorry about that; here's the working link.

End of August Updates

Okay, well, time to get into things a bit again.As we've all seen, this year has been...weird. I'm working on being better, but no idea how that's going to happen. I appreciate everyone that's been staying with me this long, but I'm still sorry that some of you pledge for higher stuff and have to wait for their rewards sometimes.I'm still looking for ways of giving you guys...

Rewards Reminders, and Hello

Hello everyone.Been a long time since I posted here, I know. That’s because almost everything happens on the discord these days, including handing out files. If you’re not there, then you’re missing 99% of the stuff that I do here on patreon.That said, I’ve realized that I should post something here, and I thought that a quick go-over of the current rewards wouldn’t hurt, as well as me t...

Happy New Year, Everyone

And so the year's work begins.I posted a poll on the patreon discord, so make sure that you get over there if you want to have a say what series gets the majority of attention this month. For those of you that might have been a little tuned out, the series are:1: The Mouse's Plans2: Dark Lord Substitute3: A Rat in the Cat's House4: Rat RebellionRegardless of the winner, the process wil...

Final Story of 2021

I thought I'd do a little bit of a personal/vent story. It's not the best thing that I've written, and I genuinely meant for it to be a bit of a holiday appreciation thing, but some of my own feelings bled through.Anyway, enjoy.

New Patreon Reward Levels

As stated, I wanted to go through and revise the reward system to make sure everyone understands what the new rewards will be like. These will take effect in January. Let’s go through them.$2 Tier-Continued access to monthly PDFs and streams, no change$5 Tier-Everything above-Monthly vote on patreon content focus-Access to plot Codex$10 Tier-Everything above-Access to character/world Codex-Acces...

Update for Next Year (SERIOUSLY, Read)

Okay, everyone. Let’s be honest. This last year was…a bit rough, all things considered. No series were finished, there were upheavals in how things were done, some rewards didn’t really materialize the way that they were supposed to (and for that, I appreciate your understanding, thank you), and I kind of bounced all over the place, just trying to keep things working rather than doing what I...

CYOA: Keep, Replace, or Drop To $10 Tier?

I keep trying to run the CYOA for patrons of the $20/$40 tier, but it seems to either never hold much attention, or be something that most people can't get to, because the last few times not enough people showed up to actually run it. It has seldom drawn much of a crowd, anyway. So, let's just ask straight-out. Shall I:-Drop it to $10/$20/$40 tiers, so that there's more access to it?-R...

To Those Still Reading Here

I have been doing more and more of the patreon stuff via discord, but let me ask. Should there be more posts here, beyond the occasional update of file sharing? Do you want to see me do more things here? Update with ideas, or...well, whatever other things you might want to mention?I also want to bring up that it is near the end of the year, and despite all the shifts I've made, we still haven&...

Changes to Patreon

Hey, everyone, just wanted to update you with a bit of a change going on. Some new stuff has gone into the reward tiers, and I wanted to give you all a chance to take a gander. In addition, I want you to have a chance to prepare for a few other changes that are taking effect in August.First, the new/changed rewards. By tier, here's what's different.$2/month tier: No change$5/month tier: Yo...

Files, Votes, and More

As a reminder, the votes are mostly happening on discord at this point, and the files tend to be distributed there, too. However, just in case anyone prefers to come here and get a download, here's a bunch of different updated chapters.In addition, I will be examining the rewards this week, as well as planning out the patreon series to a greater extent, and possibly cancelling a few that aren&...

Reminder (Discord) and Moving Forward

A lot of announcements get done on Discord, just because it's easier and less clunky. If you want to make sure that you see every stream announcement, it's easier to go there.Today, I'll be doing a chapter of The Rise of the Snow Leopard, and on Monday (at which point the next vote will be open) I'll be doing The Mouse's Plans.

Dark Lord Substitute (Files, Chapters 1-2)

Much delayed post of some of the chapters converted to PDF stuff. Working on chipping that down again. I hope that you all enjoy reading them in less awkward formatting.

Shared Universe Opinions?

Hey, everyone, just wanted to get your opinion about something.Recently, I’ve been trying to get some ideas of how to improve my patreon campaign, what I offer, and all that, and one person made a suggestion about a ‘shared universe’ set of stories involving some of the characters, a la Kadath’s cast of characters and some of the other more up-there furry artists out there. So, I wanted to...

Discussion/Q&A

Now that the most recent chapter of Dark Lord Substitute is done, I'd like to ask people some questions about my patreon as a whole, as well as answer any questions you might have of me, or concerns, or whatever.This will take place on the discord in about 25 minutes if you want to check in. I want to keep making this good for you guys, so please come around if you have any concerns or wishes ...
