Poll: Are You Not Entertained?

  • I am entertained. I'm fine with the way things are. Carry on, and think of Rome. 12
  • Honestly? I'd like to see more art. 10
  • I'd quite like read more non-Constant material - you should try writing more shorter works of fiction. 2
  • These polls are neat. Have you considered using them for some interaction fiction where you write a scene, and readers vote ? I'd like that. 3
  • I miss the rambling discussions on writing, reviews of fiction, and other random things. More of that, please. 1

Is this not why you are here?

It's been two months now that I've been running the Patreon according to the current release schedule: Monday sneak peeks, Wednesday scenes, Thursday art and an update on Friday, with other bits and bobs mixed in--at the moment, archiving previous chapters of Constant, though that's nearly done.

It seemed a good time to check in with Patreons. To quote Maximus, Are you entertained? Are you happy with the way things are? Or is there anything you'd change? Or like to see added to the rota?

Let me know in the poll below!   I'll let it run for the week, and follow up on the responses in next week's update.

From my perspective it had seemed like you're really hitting your stride, setting all these daily marks and then reaching them. All seemed pretty rosy. But maybe that was just the lull in the workplace that you've mentioned. (Or maybe it's my memory of leaner times.)

Fakeminsk TG Fiction: Constant in All Other Things

Ha! I certainly hope to avoid any return to those leaner days. The 2k/day period's been invigorating, but realistically wasn't sustainable, at least against a backdrop of full time work. 500/day remains my minimum, and that hasn't slipped; I'm still averagin 1000/day and that feels like pretty good progress and something I can maintain for some time. I suppose the poll is inspired, in part, by the ebb and flow of subscribers. Members join, members leave - and whilst my first priority is to just keep writing, growth is nice, too, and so I'm trying to ascertain what people like or want from their Patreon, what might keep them onboard, or might draw more people to join.
