News - Upcoming Tuesday or Wednesday
🕑 Added 2024-02-26 09:06:31 +0000 UTCHello everyone,
I missed this weekend's appointment as I was completely caught up with real-world commitments. But good news, I'll publish the story as soon as possible, at the latest by Tuesday or Wednesday.
Aside from that, I'll be changing the rule regarding the $10 Master subscription; the change will affect almost no one. Starting from March, when asked to send PDFs directly, I'll limit the sending to 4 PDFs. It's just that it takes me a lot of time, and for the price, at €2.5 per story, I'm almost the cheapest on the planet or close to it, which for a Swiss person is a strange sensation. For 99% of you, this change won't make a difference.
Speaking of sensations, I have something to share with you. Last week, a guy contacted me, asking if I could send him certain stories. I asked if he was a member; he said no, but he contacted me because the site where he was reading my stories (the site that was publishing stolen stories) hasn't displayed anything recently. He gave me the name of the site, which is probably the biggest and worst thief out there, and it's because of this site that I now have to protect the PDFs with passwords...
I was completely stunned, honestly. The guy insisted a bit as if this was normal to access my work for free and even better to ask me to send the latest ones for free. I refused and ask him for details and then he got an idea and explained that he couldn't pay through Patreon, PayPal, etc. Honestly, if the guy couldn't pay due to restrictions in his country, I could have sent him one or two stories, but mentioning the worst thief site as his main source to view my stories was a bit hard to swallow.
The conclusion is that this password thing, even though it's a pain, seems to be working a bit. I know it's more complicated for you, but as I've already said, it's temporary, and if you appreciate my work, you know that I spend hours perfecting the details, and there's nothing more frustrating than seeing hours of work stolen with just one click. Thank you for your support. Have a great week!
