Blog Highlights
- Blog entries have been around 0-1 per week. 🙁
- Mumble mumble designer specs for headers mumble mumble.
Patreon Highlights
- Patreon remained on track for June. Still releasing them to schedule.
- I gained one new patron.
- Still using a voting mechanic for Patreon Specials – still not getting more than 30% to 45% of patrons to vote. Still no idea how to increase that.
- No fiction was released during June. 🙁
- Patreon started charging sales tax on most everyone’s works. It’s about 6% for Virginia (where I live). So $0.06 to the dollar – but it’s still money my patrons lose. Still considering how to (legally) lower that via classification of my work on the site. This will take effect on July 1st.
Miscellaneous Related News
- My new campaign, “Ten Thousand Jade Petals” is still a bit rocky, it’s a fantasy campaign and it’s completely new so there is a lot of work to get it up to par.
- I’m going to take a month to two month break coming up soon. I’ve been working like crazy and I need to rest or I’m going to burn out. 15 projects in 16 months. 5 adventures that were 9000 words each, 3 books that were 5000, 1 book that was 52000, 1 book that was 26000, 4 novels that were a combined 600,000, and NaNo which was 50,000. I wrote about 49,000 words a month. Soon as I finish up with my book for Doug I will be shutting down for a while and vegging out till I feel better. This means my blog updates will be spotty, but my patreon will continue as normal.
