So, I don't talk about this a lot, although technically I should, so if you don't know what in the heck I'm talking about because I don't talk about it...I'mma talk about it.
(Okay, wow. So that's what my brain looks like today...*coughs*)
Allow me to introduce Patreon. If you haven't heard of it, it's this thing (website/platform) where peeps can pledge a certain amount of money (usually set by the creator in the form of tiers) to support their favorite creators (authors, artists, designers, musicians, literally anybody who makes/produces something) on a monthly basis. It's usually just a few dollars a month, depending on the tier, and each tier includes certain rewards/perks...
In my case, if you pledge just $3 a month on my lowest-ranking tier, you, my friend, can gain access to a wealth of short stories (most of which are ✨exclusive✨, which means only my patrons can/have read them), FREE digital copies of any/all of my books, and a place aboard me pirate ship as a member o' me crew! (Aka, you get to be part of a Slack workspace with the other patrons, where we can chat and chill and do legal piratey things.)
And your pledges go toward book merch, book covers, and absolutely no overpriced lattes! How cool is that, am I right?
If that hasn't piqued your interest, that's fine. I have so much more I want to share anyway!
Like one of my exclusive short stories!
This was a recent write for me (by recent, I mean this year), and it was inspired by a song I had on repeat all this spring! (Suffice to say that one song spiraled into a whole playlist...which only has eight songs, but whatever.) It's called "Savannah" after the main song "Savannah," and my setting for this story!
It's short, it's sweet, it's tender...and it's available ONLY for my patrons!!!
I also have several other short stories, some flash fiction, etc., available for my patrons, as well as a historical fantasy pirate serial!!!
Which I haven't updated recently, because life, but I do have more parts coming soon! You will have plenty of time to catch up, though, so it works.
Before I leave y'all to your Christmas festivities, I'd like to know...what would you like to see on my Patreon? I have so many ideas, but I want to do what my readers and supporters are interested in - not just what I'm interested in! So let me know down below what fun perks are on your mind!
And, of course, make sure you check out my page by clicking the button below!
Now, from my warm, toasty bedroom in surprisingly frosty South Georgia (we actually have a five percent chance of snow this week??? like, what???), I wish you all white Christmases and happy holidays!!!
