As Ko-Fi is not everyone’s preferred place of support, I’ve decided to launch a Patreon as well. My Patreon will have the same content as Ko-Fi, so don’t switch if you’re a Ko-Fi member!
Patreon is also digital only, and priced at $5 for Eldritch Acolytes and $10 for Eldritch Disciples.
Disciples get access to everything. ($10)
Acolytes get access to some eBooks and all monthly letters. ($5)
Collections
I’ve kicked off with 6 letters that Ko-Fi members got in 2021, and I’ll be adding to these until Patreon catches up with Ko-Fi. Then both sites will get monthly fiction at the same time.
Letter Collections will be Dirty Dozen collections covering about a year at a time.
eBook Downloads have their own eBook Collection, and Acolytes can download two out of four, while Disciples get all four. One is a Ko-Fi member exclusive download, which is the Eglantine Pritchard backstory short.
The Sussex Fretsaw Massacre is available in audio and eBook in its own collection. I will be adding the short stories to this collection, so you also get the shorts I published alongside the novella in The Sussex Fretsaw Massacre and Other Stories.
Patreon Tier Pricing Notes
The tier prices are for the following reasons:
- International postage for my £5.00 tier has gone up to £3.20 per letter, so I’m not really making a lot on these tiers! I would ideally like more Ko-Fi members on my £3 and £1.50 tiers, but also, I know I’m under-pricing these. I’m not going to raise the price of Ko-Fi, but I am able to have Patreon at a higher price.
* - Patreon takes a bigger cut than Ko-Fi does, and it is priced in USD, while I will be paid in GBP. The US$ is lower than the British Pound, and the conversion rate goes up and down like a yo-yo. So by pricing the two digital tiers at $5 and $10, I’ll make around £3 for the $5 and maybe £6 for the $10, once the fees come off.
* - I don’t have capacity to add to the number of people I send handwritten things out to. This will remain exclusive to Ko-Fi, capped at 10, and I have 2 spots left. I’m not adding spots, so it’s one in, one out! So with Patreon, it’s digital only, and Disciples get the full number of eBooks and letters and everything that I put on there. Acolytes get some eBooks free to download and all the letters!
* - If you’re like, why would I support on Patreon though when I could support on Ko-Fi and get more for less? Why indeed! Join my membership on Ko-Fi while I still have spots left on my top tier!
