BLog Funding, Day 15 of 15

Whew! It’s the last day of rattling the can, at least for now. All together it probably comes to around 25k. I won’t lie and say I didn’t hope for more because that would be stupid. Of course I was hoping to fully fund. However, the methods of donation plus a couple of other ways to donate will now be on the website and once every three months or so I can remind people of them at the bottom of posts. You know, in case one of you wins the lottery.

And I’m convinced Chapter House will gain more followers overtime, particularly after fun with doctors is done, and chapters are more regular.

As to why I’m doing this? Well, I do the work, I should get paid. How much honestly is based on what people who do syndicated columns get paid per year, but also … well, it really is a lot of work, even if no one holds a gun to my head to do it.

The total at Give Send Go is the desired total for everything. No, it’s not going particularly well this year, but a bit always trickles in through other means. Oh, and we’re starting (if the emails don’t get blocked again) to pay off on pledges from last year, but I still have a month on USAian story collection. And mass (and math Ah!) deaths will take place as more books get written. As will tuckerizations. If you gave enough last year to get a Moose and Squirrel mp4 it should be in your mailbox. Check your junk folder.
I’m going to try to assemble Usaian collection this weekend, the creek not rising.

The first option to donate is Give Send Go. They forbid the use of incentives to donors. So if you give via GSG you’re doing it for the satisfaction of helping According to Hoyt stay up and for me to be compensated for my work. Yes, that total is scary but I never intended for it to be carried by GSG alone. That’s the funding goal for all methods, for the year. A keeping-track-of goal, you might say. To donate to Give Send Go: Link Here.

’ve started a substack called Chapter House, in which I’m serializing two novels, one fantasy and one Space Opera, at two chapters a week. (The idea is for Witch’s Daughter to get two new chapters on Wednesday, and Winter Prince two on Friday. because July is h*ll this year (Fun with DOCTORS! People and cat doctors. Yeah) these might slip for the next two/three weeks. After that they won’t. Anyway, to subscribe to Chapter House, the link is: Here.

And for those of you who have Patreon and just want to donate in a system you already have, I have one of those, and I will be posting life events, and excised scenes, and art, and … well, be warned, likely cat stuff. Because I’m owned by cats. Anyway, to donate on Patreon, please: Go here.

Finally, if you must send things by snailmail, yes, we accept checks, cash, and gold coins. Just package those really well.

The pretty pretty pictures are the result of my playing with midjourneybot and teaching it to sit up and beg. (Grin.) And they’re free for whatever you want to use them, though you might have to run them through an embigenning AI.

And for Monalisa Foster who tells me she has a type….

Okay, this one might be too purty for her, but them’s the breaks. You can’t have everything you want. Where would you put it? Who would dust it?
