Hey everyone! I wanted to announce that I just started a Patreon. I am so grateful for all of you who are reading, never in my wildest dreams I thought this many people would read my story. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
The next logical step in this journey is to somehow make a living on this. This opportunity came at a weird time, I just graduated in finance and got a good-paying job, but out of the blue, I decided to write a story. To my immense surprise, I slowly gained readers as I went. I realized that this was what I wanted to do in life, growing up I loved reading but always told myself I wouldn't be able to write a story. So I said "screw it" and ended up quitting my job, throwing all my stuff in this boat.
It's honestly scary but I will say that I have had more fun doing this than I have in a while. And I would love to do this full-time, which is why I started a Patreon. I don't expect large numbers like those on more established stories, but anything would help.

I have been uploading chapters as fast as I write them so there are only a handful of chapters ahead for early access. I am starting Tier 1 with 5 early chapters and have plans to backlog another 5 for the next tier. Eventually, I want to have 20 or 30 early chapters but for now, I will have to build my way up. I was tempted not to upload for a period of time while I built up a stash, but I didn't want to leave you all hanging, because, at the end of the day, I want people to be able to enjoy my story without having to pay me. It just sucks that's how life works, rent doesn't pay for itself.
Tier 1 starts at $3, Tier 2 will be around $5, and I am thinking $10 for the larger option. Honestly, this is a trial run to see how many people believe my story is worth supporting. I hope there are some of you out there who want to support me as I make this journey.
Thank you, seriously, even if you don't ever pay a single cent, I love that you have read my story!
