After months of hemming, hawing, and other assorted mouth-noises, I’ve finally done it. I’ve launched a Patreon campaign to support the creation of new stories and storyworlds here on the website.
If you’re a regular visitor here, you know I love creating new worlds. I love filling them with interesting characters and exciting conflicts, and bringing them to life through stories, games, and other media. I’ve done a bit of that world-building here on the website, but not as much as I’d like. With this Patreon campaign, I plan to expand the amount of actual world-building I do on the site and – if there’s enough interest – turn those new worlds into books or other products.
You may be asking, “What’s Patreon?”
Patreon is a website where you can support your favorite creators with a few bucks every month and, in return, not only do they get to keep creating, but you get to go behind the scenes and be part of the process.
“Sounds neat,” you might say. “So why are you using Patreon?”
While I occasionally do small, personal world-building projects on my website (see those links above), the Patreon will allow me to turn these projects into regular features. For example, I did a series of posts on the “Empire of Venom & Silk” fantasy world a few months back. I’d love to go back to it, flesh it out, and maybe write some fiction set in that world. But the reality of being a freelancer is that I don’t have much time for non-paying projects, no matter how much I’d enjoy them. With Patreon’s help, I’ll finally have that time.
If you’re still reading this, you’re probably curious to see what the Patreon campaign looks like. Here’s the link. Check it out. Watch the video. Share it with your friends.
Thanks for reading all the way to the end, and thank you for your support!
