Content

Hello everyone! 

As I'm sure you've seen, I experimented with making one of my stories that I thought had the chance to make an impact - the Pebble Beach one - a non-exclusive story, so anyone could read it. As I'm still in an early stage of my career, there will undoubtedly be more stories like this I want to share more broadly, but still want to publish here on Patreon, which I am using as the home of all my work that doesn't find an outlet.

My question is: When I write more work that I want to share broadly, would making it subscriber-only for a week or so (an early access period, essentially), and then releasing it to the broader public be appealing? I can keep the amount of content higher that way, and I can also take feedback from subscribers before anyone else has a chance to read it, and integrate ones I like into the work. Or as a subscriber, do you only want to read stories that only you can read, but with the understanding there will just be fewer of them? 

Thanks for your time! 

Victoria

Information is meant to be free ;) I'm happy if subscribing helps sustain that.
