Of Tip Jars and PDFs

UPDATE: I got my first tip through the tip jar. So exciting! After fees, it worked out to $1.64. Thank you, friend! ^^


 

You all know that I've been muttering for weeks now about setting up this crowdfunding stuff. Well, I finally did the thing! I set up my crowdfunding page here. (I also linked it at the bottom of my profile page). Yaaaay!

As you can see, I only set up 2 tiers: $1 a month and $2 a month. I'm still trying to figure out what perks to give for each tier. Basically, the $2 tier will get you access to bonus fics early and maaaybe a special sponsor-only fic once a year. IDK yet. But whatever I end up with, it will be AT LEAST what's listed now.

Also, many of you have asked me over the years if I could set up a tip jar so you could just throw a few dollars at me to say thanks. I finally set that up too! The link is on the crowdfunding page or here. The tip jar comes with no monthly commitments, which I understand is a concern for many of you. If you're re-reading At His Command and thinking to yourself, "Damn, Mira deserves a little something for this hot YunJae military action" then you can use the tip jar. There's no set amount, so go wild.

Of course, what I get the MOST requests for are quality PDFs of my stories. I haven't made those available yet, and IDK if I will. I'm worried a bit about the legality of it and want to research it first. But IF it turns out to be legal for me to sell PDFs, which fic would you like to see first? Tell me what you want! ^^

Anyway, there's no pressure to send me any money at all. I know that some of you are barely scraping by, some can't use Paypal, and some of you just don't want to pay for fanfiction. That's all okay! All my fics will remain open for readers, just like they've always been. I might write some sponsor-only bonus fics sometime in the future, but currently I have no plans to do so.

Anyway, big thanks to all of you for sticking with me this far. There's still so much good storytelling ahead of us. My y vamps are up next! Here's a chapter hint:

Hi Mira! Congrats on finally setting up your own crowdfunding page ^_^ I think you definitely deserve some form of compensation/reward for all the hard work and effort you've poured into all your fanfics! Take your time to figure out what kind of perks you wanna give us~ I'm sure we'd all be happy with anything from you hehe.

Wishing you all the best and looking forward to all your future stories and content! :)
