Three!
Three!
Functionally identical to the first tier, but superior in every way! Why? Three.
... Yes, I'm weird.

Aloft
No, not the hotel chain.
The general support tier, unlocking what small rewards I can give at this time! Scheduled stories will be posted here early, and you'll get to see all of them in one place. $5 doesn't go as far as it used to, but it's still five bucks (no, not the deer). I really appreciate the support.

Rising Higher
Higher, farther, freer.
I'm absolutely thrilled, and I hope to make it worth your while! You'll get access to drafts and WIPs, and other exclusives as I make them. You'll also get a shout-out in the acknowledgements of my works.

Soaring Between Worlds
If I wasn't trying to be kinder to myself, I'd say something about not deserving this kind of support.
All the benefits of previous tiers, as well as behind-the-scenes dribs and drabs. For fellow writers I'd be willing to offer some brainstorming and/or editing assistance as well.

You Feather Believe It
Just a wee little update... okay, that's a lie.
The outline for the Feathers rewrite is complete.
I've posted before that my outlines are the story without the prose and dialogue; they're draft 0.5, if you will. This helps me get a more organic feel for pacing, structure... it's easier to adjust to things like the events of In Fine Feather working better as the fifth story arc instead of the third. "Wait, how many arcs are there??" Oh, a few. I'll start offering sneak peeks to Patreon/SubscribeStar in the near future :>
The outline clocks in at 25,141 words. For reference, the entirety of Feathers with Benefits, as posted, is 32,189 words. Going by outline-to-final-draft of Salazzle Dazzle and Bubble Entendre (the only other two of my works longer than just the outline), the final drafts are, give or take, 4x larger than their outlines.
Yeah, that's a low-end estimate of 100,000 words. About average for an entire fantasy novel. Writing two novella-length stories was good practice and I learned some valuable lessons, but I've still got my work cut out for me.
It still blows my mind that this story, originally a two-parter porn-with-plot, has grown so much and captured the hearts of so many. I really hope the rewrite will be everything all of you, especially my long-time fans, have been waiting for. If not better.
I guess I'll just have to write it and find out. ^v^

A modest start!
I write for myself, of course, but having external validation is important too. At this point I will start asking questions of you lovely patrons to determine how I can do better with my offerings; I want to be able to reward and engage with those who support my work!
I will also likely start a Discord. I don't use it as much as I should, but, this would be a fine reason to change that.

Featherverse rewrite cover art.
Quality art and commercial rights are more expensive than this, so this goal is sort of a 'donation match' for readers to help out. I'll front the rest of the cost.

Now we're at cruising altitude!
This is a serious boon to my heart and my wallet, and I will seek to pour more of both back into the writing you're here for. Cover art, character profiles, maps, worldbuilding details, and more are all on the table.

A strong, steady tailwind carrying us to new adventures.
At this stage, finances willing, I can reliably budget for cover art, maps, character sketches, and other extras for many of my projects. Patrons will, of course, have perks like early access, HD, etc. where applicable.
