*IMPORTANT* Change to tiers. Please read carefully! (Patreon)

Hey guys! It’s the start of a new month. I’m so appreciative to all of you who were able to stay!

Last month I was really having a rough time figuring out how to make Patreon more efficient for myself when it comes to production. I also had a rough time with exit reviews this go-around.

I no longer have a backstock of any content, so I’m pumping out new content only, and that’s getting me a bit overwhelmed!

I feel as if I did worse after going part-time at my job last month (due to outlying circumstances), and I would really like to be able to give you guys the best experience here that I can.

So let me explain the changes.

—

Initially, I was going to delete the two-dollar tier and leave the five dollar and ten dollar tier divided with benefits, as I post updates around 14-19 times a month between the three tiers. (Given that there are 28-31 days in a month, this can be tiresome, and Patreon itself takes a substantial cut with creator and platform fees.).

I felt that this was fair — at first, but then the issue that comes up is that I don’t know what story that you’re here for.

I’m unsure if it’s fair to swap the tiers on those of you who can’t afford to switch up to a five-dollar tier and are only here for one story, so you don’t indulge in those 19 updates.

So.

• 2 dollar patrons!

The two-dollar tier will have access to the three top stories, Black Velvet, The Blue House of 1478, and WICKED BOY.

These stories are guaranteed to update every month. These stories are likely why most of you are here, so I want to make them available to you.

I want to make sure that it’s clear that these stories may each only have a couple of updates a month because if I post more than that, I may forfeit the quality of work. I had several exit reviews that really wanted more content posted on the two-dollar tier. Still, I want to be upfront and let you know that working between several stories is very hard, and I cannot physically do more than a couple of chapters for each book. They add up. I sometimes get in kicks where I can post a lot, and I’m incredibly inspired! But I have other stories and other tiers, so please be understanding.

Thanks for supporting me. I appreciate you so much.

• 5 dollar patrons!

The five-dollar tier will have access to Black Velvet, The Blue House of 1478, Wicked Boy, and other stories I’m working on, such as Erebos. You will also have early access to Seraphino and DARLING chapters, hiatus stories that are already posted, such as The Red Thread, The Taste of Ash, and When Love is Bitter. You will still have access to character questionnaires, character templates and poems, and my podcasts, as well as the DUSK AU for Black Velvet.

Sorry if you were feeling neglected! I hope this extra content makes you feel more valued. I am so grateful to you.

• 10 dollar patrons

I will start releasing vlogs and podcasts to this tier beginning this month. Occasionally I send out sticker merch, depending on the month.

This tier includes everything from all other tiers and also includes NSFW scenes, one-shots, scenes from Black Velvet told from Tobias' POV, scenes told from Levi's POV, and this NSFW AU series from WICKED BOY:

Summary:

Ez is a pornstar; Milan is his fluffer. Only, a live cam show starts too early, and Ez's audience reacts better to him and Milan than to his partner of the day.

and comedy AU series DUSK for Black Velvet:

Summary:

The new vampire novel, #Fangz, with its sordid love triangle and undead angst, becomes a hit amongst the small, Christian town of Jameson. Oliver Abernathy reads all of two chapters — then decides that his neighbor is most definitely a vampire.

And NSFW series TEACH ME for Black Velvet:

Welcome to Teach Me, a gratuitous AU featuring Tobias Amadeus as a reluctant baseball coach turned history substitute (and all the sexual tension between him and the dorky, bizarre science teacher, Oliver Abernathy.

and ANOTHER NSFW series for Wicked Boy:

Summary:

The one in which a very drunk Milan accidentally summons a demon by vomiting on a graffiti sigil on the back of Huxley's Gas'N'Go.

also includes:

Access to all ongoing Patreon-exclusive stories, including, but not limited to, Black Velvet, The Blue House of 1478, Wicked Boy, Erebos, and early access to chapters of Darling and Seraphino. You will also have access to hiatus or spontaneous stories such as When Love is Bitter, Binary Stars, The Taste of Ash, and The Red Thread.

Also, you will get completed character templates (such as q&a style, age, interests, favorites, etc.), backgrounds on underdeveloped characters, answered character questionnaires, and more. This tier is more interactive in nature and has some fun out-of-book development and insight into your favorite characters!

If anyone is unhappy with these changes and your pledge for this month has already run through, please message me, and I will request that Patreon refunds you.

If you’d like to upgrade your tier from the 2 tier to the 5 tier, Patreon will only charge you the three dollar difference. Same as from 5 tier to 10 tier, there will be a five dollar difference.

I appreciate your support so much, but I want to cater to you appropriately and within the ability of myself as one person. I hope you will read through these changes carefully, as I don’t want to disappoint anyone further!

Thank you so incredibly much! X Alex
