Back in the US! And some billing FAQ...
🕑 Added 2021-09-03 06:59:32 +0000 UTCHeyaaaaa. Though I did get a story out last month (plus a commission from another author!), I know I wasn't as active as usual. Now I'm back and picking up my routine - life, gym, writing - and will have much more coming this month, including more progress pics and more stories.
Took a peek at the exit surveys (even though I swore I never would) and was relieved that basically all departures were on good terms, whew! The biggest source of confusion seems to be that billing is per creation, not per month.
Some FAQ on that:
- This enables me to get you quality stories as opposed to rushing things out just to meet a quota.
- The only paid posts are full length, brand new stories. Everything else is just based on tiers (for example, if you're Muscle Daddy tier, you see my progress pics even if I don't post any new stories that month).
- You are only charged at the top of each month. A couple surveys mentioned "not wanting random charges throughout the month," which isn't how it works anyway! You're still only charged once, for whatever amount of paid posts I had the previous month.
- You can cap your pledge at a certain amount. If you only want to give 6 bucks a month (i.e. two paid stories at the $3 level), you can cap it at that. And tbh, I highly doubt I'll ever be posting more than two stories a month, at least not without considerable warning first. You can pledge with confidence knowing you won't suddenly get charged, like, 50 bucks.
- Also heads up: if I post a story and you unsubscribe before the next billing cycle, you'll still be charged.
I kinda hate talking about this stuff because I'm so grateful that any of you are here! But I also think transparency is important. These are basically all just Patreon policies, but they still bear repeating.
Okay, I think that's all! Working on some sleek hunks for you. Hope you can enjoy a long weekend if you're in the US! :)
