I'm hoping to expand this Patreon in 2022 (or possibly earlier than that, if I can swing it) and wanted to start by getting your feedback. I can't make promises about any of the items below, but I want to see what excites you the most.

(Bear in mind that any physical goods will be confined to more expensive tiers than the ones available now, since they will have to cover shipping).

The weekly writing & word-count updates seem excessive, maybe bi-weekly or even monthly. I was thinking this would only apply to a book you would be writing not the monthly chapters you are currently posting. The patron-only Q&As would eventually be posted on your website for others to read? Signed books, I actually love the stamp that you use along with your signature, I haven't seen other authors do something like that. Okay, that's my two cents. Love what you are writing, have a wonderful day.

Q&As would stay exclusive to the Patreon unless we hit on something I thought would make a particularly good blog post (same goes for writing reflections). Writing updates would probably consist of separate progress reports for each of my ongoing non-serial projects (e.g. Bright Haven - 2 chapters revised, Mystery Project - 3,200 words written, etc.) Thanks for the feedback!
