I’ve been getting some questions lately about how people can contribute to my latest endeavour, the Choose Your Own Adventure story I’m writing and illustrating, Artemis’ Bow. If you’re unaware of what Artemis’ Bow is you can see all the material relating to it here: http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/.....7/Artemis-Bow/
TL;DR? You’re taking control of the female wolf captain of a smuggler’s spaceship with a recently installed AI and two increasingly gluttonous crewmembers. Can you find your way to profits and freedom? How many enemies, and pounds, will you gain along the way? Each part of the story I post comes with votes, and through those votes you decide the course of the story.

How to vote:
At the bottom of each story posted on FA (to avoid spoilers) will be a section called Voting Options. Immediately to the right of that title will be a link to a strawpoll vote which looks something like this: https://strawpoll.com/ewx59y8
To make sure your vote is counted, you should visit the strawpoll link in each part, click your preference, and then hit ‘vote’. Commenting in the comments section of each submission is great to give me an indication of what you’re voting and what your reasons are, but if you want your vote to be counted make sure to visit the strawpoll link as well! :D

Patreons and Voting

Patreon Voting, First Round:
First round voting operates the same way as the FA voting system above, except that it takes place on Patreon and the top THREE options win, and will be presented to FA in a general vote. Essentially, if there aren’t enough different story paths to give both Patreons and FA voters different votes, then I’ll use First and Second round voting, allowing Patreons an additional chance to shape the story before it gets to FA.

Patreon Voting, Normal:
When a submission hits FA there are typically two things to vote on. One of these is for everyone to vote on, the second (usually pertaining to kinks/fetishes) is limited to Patreons. To vote on the second set of options, if you’re a Patreon, head on over to where the submission is posted on Patreon and click the relevant strawpoll link.

Weighted Votes:
If you’re a patreon of 5USD or a higher tier then you have weighted votes. At 5USD a month your vote counts for two, at 10USD+ it counts for 3. Since strawpoll is run independently of Patreon I need you to tell me specifically, either in the submission itself or directly, which of the options you voted for so that I can apply the weights for everyone after the voting period ends. If you can, try to do this on the patreon submission directly, or through the patreon messaging system, as often Patreon and FA names are different.
