Patreon Reward Edits (Patreon)
Content
First off for those I still owe rewards from the past I will keep working on those.
From this point forward Starting November the rewards that have been changed will take effect.
Currently the story rewards have been deleted. I will only be hosting polls to decided what 5k story to do. We'll hold these polls ideal each week within a month. Maybe four polls all at once? We'll see what works.
Ideally the system will mean I will make two to four patron stories every month.
If people decided to leave my Patreon because of these changes or go down to a lower tier that's perfectly fine.
I am still trying to figure out what works best to attract people and what I can realistically do as well.
Currently though I feel I have been productive and mentally healthy this October. I would like to stay that way to avoid burnout and then not making content for months.
Now with the story polls. My plan is to have patrons vote on a genre, or possibly make a random option? Random in that people can select a number and I'll pick one and then that person gets to say their idea and I'll write it kinda thing. A few ways to go about this.
The main thing with the story poll stories, I will post them on patron only first for well only patrons. They will be locked for maybe the whole month or week? I am unsure of how to handle that one, and then I will post them all at once on Deviant Art when the month/week finishes.
I feel I may try the month route and see how that goes first... it could create draw to the patron and have others actually give me some other ideas I could offer realistically as rewards.
It's been nice to have any support on here. But I've been doing so much work that is not profitable at all... I make more with commissions but offering the stories I was for patron rewards made me get behind on work and did work that was not worth the money.
So wanting to make this a career dying for my art is not going to help me make any.
With that said I will also be changing commissions up in how I handle them and prices.
That info will be over on DA as my pin post as usual.
