Hi there friends, thank you for your kind support. 

I'm polling everyone in various tiers for feedback on how I could improve this Patreon. 

I'm doing polls for $5+, $1, and the Free tier.  As you've likely read, at the end of the year, my plan is to phase out the $1 tier, which means the lowest tier will be $5. 

I truly value your patronage and would like to make this worth it to you. Everyone's dealing with increasing financial pressure lately. 

I really love this project, however, it's very time-consuming, and I'm struggling to keep the ship sailing. 

So, I really appreciate you taking the time to give me any feedback you have. 

Thus far, the most popular amongst the $1 crowd is the 3-Choice Book Review Poll.  

I'm open to other ideas too. If you have suggestions, please hit me up. 

A 'Book Club' has been recently recommended, and while it's a great idea, it's quite time-consuming and not something I can handle just yet. 

Thank you very much for your input!

I like the idea of a monthly stream. Kinda like the Friday wrap ups but long form.

You do sincerely great work, Cliff. Keep it up. You are worth the subscription.

I concur with the comments made so far. I totally understand the changes and why you are doing them and I am grateful for being consulted.

Love your work, Cliff. I hope you can keep it running. It's one of my favorite things on the web. I'm at the $5 tier, and have felt that it's been worth every penny. If I ever strike it rich, one of the first things I would do would be to increase my patronage. Best of luck, and keep up the great work!

Ideas an ex libris bookplate to paste in designed by Better Than Food as well as the signed bookmarker. Not asking for much !!

Cliff, I wish there was a fifth option for "Do what works best for Cliff." I'd vote that option. Thanks for seeking our input, but know many of us are here for you and Better than Food however the ride pans out.
