thinking about patreon
10 years ago
Well, I know what it looks like. Myself, I often thought that I would always write/do art for fun, but the thing is... I still need to live X3
In fact, lately, I've experienced real troubles with my motivation. I still want to write, I wish to keep my stories going on until the end. And believe me, I have plenty of ideas for that. But every time I get to my word page, I'm like "it's not what is going to help you with your life" and I start thinking about my real life struggles which already take me a lot of time.
The thing is, if my work could bring me something in return, I think I'd be more motivated to do it. Having good comments, favs, or even knowing that my stories make people dream, are rewarding. But it often represents hours of work for a short moment of happiness. If some of my fans were feeling like encouraging my work, I think I should at least try. Like, giving a little each time I release a new chapter or so, I don't know yet. As I said, I just started thinking about it^^
I'd like your point of view on it. I mostly think about this stuff to find solutions to the money problem I had lately, and to find a new flame in my work.

Seems fair to me. You do spend time to produce good stories so there is nothing wrong in getting some support from your readers. As long as money don't become your only reason though.
