🕑 Added 2022-09-08 17:35:01 +0000 UTCHey guys, this is a little awkward, but I wanted to take your opinion about something.
With me going back to university in the next couple of weeks, I am returning to a 3-4 chapters a week schedule. Unfortunately, with this being my senior year, I don't know how busy things are going to be, which means that it's possible for me to miss days because I'm too busy studying or something similar. I can't know for certain until after the first few weeks though.
With that said, I thought about writing more chapters before school starts (like around 5 early ones) and putting them in a new tier, this way, even if I don't have time to write, every upload day, a new chapters will be unlocked.
Don't worry, I will not change a single thing for the other tiers, they will still have access to five and ten early unedited chapters respectively, so there shouldn't be any change from that point. As for the extra chapters, I will press myself a bit a write two chapters a day when I can during the next couple of weeks to get things going.
Honestly, there's also a financial aspect to it, one that I feel uncomfortable sharing. I have always thought that my private life is supposed to remain offline, but you're my patrons, so I guess I could share to you guys.
I'm a minimalistic person in nature. I'm very introverted and don't spend too much money outside of food, rent and other basic amenities. I'm on a scholarship so I'm covered on that front.
The reason I started this page in the first place is because I needed money to pay for my father's medicine. He's suffering from something called Huntington's disease and well, and his medicine needs to be imported from abroad, which means that they're freakishly expensive. I worked a part time job to pay for them and opened this page since I was already writing for fun anyway. The disease itself is horrible and without a cure, and I don't want to talk about it too much because I'm not comfortable discussing my father's symptoms online.
And for that I wanted to convey how grateful I am to all of you about this. I can't imagine what would have happened without your support. I don't know how to express how much this helped. Not just the donations, but also the fact that I somehow have an audience that likes something I write.
With that said, for some reason, my country raised the taxes dramatically on medical drugs and well, things are a little tight. I could still continue without changing anything since I saved up a bit, but I still felt like the option to donate more to be open to helps things a bit more.
Again, I don't want to guilt anyone into donating, and I still haven't started doing anything in that regard. I just wanted to get your opinion on the matter. In the end, I can still get by without a change, I just wanted to ask you if creating a new tier would make you uncomfortable or something, or should I just go through with it?
Be blunt if you can, especially since this is a weird poll.
PS: I'm not going to go through with it without your approval so if you really don't like it just let me know.
