Update on the September Patreon Showcase: September 2, 2017.

Goose egg, essentially.  Such is life.  My Patreon remains, and it continues to increase in value with every single day.  For example: I’ve just posted “Last Stand,” which is a pretty little microfiction of the sort that I provide my patrons every week, rain or shine.  I’ve made it available to the public, so that you can gaze upon for yourself, and realize that $1/month is an absolute marvel of a deal.

So go take a look, sign up, and come back.  You’ll be glad that you did.

The Great September Patreon Pledge Drive.

It being September, I think that it is a marvelous time to start really pushing the Patreon every day. Short version of Patreon: give me money, I give you original fiction and gaming material.  The more I make, the more you get. And it can all be yours for as little as one dollar a month!

The plan is to boost the signal a bit, so I’ll be showcasing some of my stuff, enticing with some more of my stuff, and in general riding that thin line between banging-the-pot and being-a-nuisance. Right now the goal is to reach the $200/month goal, which will result in subscribers getting a 3,ooo word short story every month.  Seriously, this is an amazing bargain. Tell your friends! Heck, tell your enemies and pretend that it’ll hurt your feelings if they subscribe. I’m not proud.

Today’s story being showcased is “Lay My Bones Next To Jimmy Hoffa’s.” It’s available for free over there, so check it out.  I am rather pleased with how it came out.

There’s going to be some changes in the Patreon.

Starting September 1st, the upcoming tiers will be revamped and I’m going to really push the Patreon itself for September.  And couple it with a pledge drive goal over here. Nothing really sp… actually, no: it is all going to be spectacular, and this is an incredible deal that all of your friends should sign up for.  Besides, the more people that do, the more everybody else gets.

So, you know that RPG world for Patreon I’ve been thinking of for the last six months?

Yeah.  I’m delaying it at the last minute, because I had an entire new campaign world just drop into my head this morning. It’s a combination of D&D and Space Colonization: various fantasy races settling an alien world.  There will be magic, there will be active deities, and there will be technology (there just won’t be much in the way of electronics, because the industries needed haven’t been built yet). Throw in a helpful colony-wide disaster or two, and the world will be at just the right enlightened early-Renaissance level that I’ll need to sustain this.

Plus, I know just the OGL I can use to, you know, sell this puppy under. It’s time I started thinking about how to sell stuff.
