Wow, TOMORROW we are dropping the first pages of Favor of Athena!
Tell your friends, family, and anyone who is into indy comics, mystery, fantasy, and action.
What’s new this week?
- Tonight (Tuesday), the flash fiction for Athena will be published exclusively right here on Patreon for each tier. This is a prequel story, around 500 words, that leads into the first issue.
- Richard has freed up some more time and we are talking about having him do more promotional work, in addition to the comic strip.
- We are still ahead of our 4th quarter goal: at least 5 subscribers in the $5 tier. Our goal for the end of this fiscal year was $22.50. We have smashed that with $70 from our subscribers. This means we are $20 away from meeting our $90 goal for next year!
- I’m planning an official Favor of Athena website. Hopefully, we will be able to launch it next month or February.
- I still have not chosen which webcomic platform we will use to help bring in more subscribers, but we are down to Webtoon and Comixology.
- Kickstarter planning is going well. We will be focusing on single-issue crowdfunding. This will go to publishing 250 physical copies of the issue, Richard’s salary per issue, and marketing. What awards would you like to see on the Kickstarter? Let me know in the comments.
- Character profiles are coming.
- Patron monthly awards per tier will be finished by Friday.
$3: none
$5: read aloud podcast
$15: above award, plus behind the scenes look at the upcoming pages for
January’s release.
$45: shirts will be ordered.
$90: hoodies will be ordered.
- Remember to tell your friends, family, and others about Patreon. Every little bit helps. If there is anything else you would like to see from Patreon, or a specific tier, comment below. I’m always open to suggestions.
Be Terrific!
