Dear Fans,

We’re moving into June now. I took my typical week off from June 1^st to June 7^th, but I did want to get this newsletter out to you sooner rather than later. There are some important updates you should know about.

Announcements:

*First off, June 18^th is my last day of school for the summer. I know, this school doesn’t have the longest summer break, but it’ll still give me 6 weeks or so where I can work more on writing.

*The big June survey might become the big July survey, as I’m doing a big change this month and might want to give people time to see the differences. (plus, I was pretty late getting december’s survey out in January)

*The credit system should be working for everyone. However, we’ve decided to revamp it a bit more. This is all part of a new update to the site which is going to change basically how I decide on what chapters to work on. I’ll just go ahead and describe it.

Every paying member will be allocated votes based on your tier. We also grant a free point for anyone on my mailing list, so look out for this.) You can allocate them to any novel on my site. You can use every vote on one novel, or divide them out evenly, or whatever you want. The numbers of every vote gets aggregated and then through some calculations, my subscribership total (the bar on the front page) will determine which chapters will be on the schedule.

If you want the nitty gritty, We set it up so every $600 in memberships I’ll write a 1500 word chapter. In stories where its 3000 words, it’ll be $1200. These will be sparsed out based on donation amount. So, if the donation bar is at 2400, I’d write 4 1500 word chapters or 2 3000 word chapters, or 2 1500 word chapters and 1 3000 word chapter, based on the order set by the vote.

So, you vote for exactly what you want to see scheduled, and the level of sponsorship decides how many get written. The Novel Selection is available in your membership menu.

While this is happening, I will ramp up my credit system in two ways. Way 1, you keep your credits you don’t spend every month. No reset. Way 2, you can earn more points as long as you remain a member. Basically, after 1, 3, 5, and 10 years of membership, you’ll get increasingly more points, which can be used to sponsor any work not scheduled, or buy eBooks.

This month, and this month alone, I will retroactively provide membership to anyone who quit and rejoins. In other words, if you were a Power Fapper for a year, and left six months ago, if you rejoin this month, you will be granted bonus coins as if you were a loyal supporter.

After this month, if you quit your membership, you will lose any loyalty bonus and have to start over again. On the other hand, if you’ve been a steady member for 5 years, you’ll see yourself earning considerably more points. The amount you will earn based on membership is shown below.

You must be part of a single tier for 12+ months. If you change tiers, you start a new timer with that tier. If you increase tiers, you will retain your bonus. If you drop tiers, you lose any higher tier bonus.  If you wish to rejoin this month, you must rejoin whatever tier you previously had to get the bonus. After this month, you will have to start at 0 if you aren’t a member.

Anyway, the point of this system I hope is clear. I’m giving you guys much more control over what gets written. You vote for what you want to see, and if what you want doesn’t make the list, you can sponsor it instead. Sponsoring still lets you read the next chapter, and once the chapter reaches the total goal, I start working on the next chapter. Scheduled chapters get a guaranteed 3-4 a month, but the way the math works, if a story is highly voted enough, it can easily get second, third, or even fifth chapters. So, if everyone votes MDL, then MDL will dominate the list and you might even see 7 releases a week of MDL.

*Finally, I hope to spend more time on pushing out eBooks in the near future. I haven’t decided yet, but I might take my week off a monthly thing, especially if it allows me to get ahead on scheduled work and pop out eBooks. Naturally, I’ll look for feedback in the upcoming survey.

*For the reason above, I will not put the weekly schedule here. The weekly schedule will actually appear on the home page automatically moving forward.

May Releases

Not bad, not bad, still increasing every month.

Sincerely,
