I created a Patreon!
https://www.patreon.com/c/mellrbright
Why Patreon?
The recent events around the KU page rate and the Amazon boycott made me realize how precarious my situation is. I’m a little French indie author writing queer books from my little corner of the world (on the other side of the globe from 80% of my readership in North America). I needed a way to connect with my readers and community beyond the massive companies like Amazon or the Meta apps. A way to make this adventure feel real, and to be able to keep doing it for as long as you guys will allow me. Because, yes, I can keep doing this and live of my craft thanks to you guys!
I also want to invest my earnings from Patreon directly back into my books by commissioning artists and other creators. I want to flood the internet with art of my characters! SFW art, NSFW art, maps, sketches, candles... I want them all! The indie book industry is a wonderful world. Every step I take, I stumble upon a gifted creator.
I’m brimming with ideas, too, and I have so much to offer. So many book ideas waiting to be put on paper.
What will you find on my Patreon? (depending of the tier...)
- ARC copies (ebooks).
- Weird drawings made by me.
- Sneak peeks of my writing process and my life.
- Early chapters.
- Early cover reveals, blurbs, title reveals...
- The opportunity to vote for stuff.
- Cover design process.
- Signed bookplates + handwritten letters.
- My undying love and gratitude.
- Chunks of my soul.
- Hopefully art art art!
Paid or free subscriptions, I love you all! I hope I'll see you around.
Love,
Mell R. Bright
