Perks and Gifts and Treats!
Wow! We launched our Patreon yesterday, as I mentioned in my previous blog post, and we are thrilled by the response. Seriously, we didn’t expect so many people to sign up on the first day, and we are extremely grateful. Thank you so much, patrons! You are amazing!
I mentioned yesterday that Patreon is a two-way street . . . it’s not just about us asking for money so that we can continue making the comic, it ‘s also about us providing incentives. Perks and gifts and treats, if you will. We started yesterday with five levels for supporters, each with their own perks.
The five levels are listed below. Look them over, and maybe you’ll see something you like. And if you have any suggestions for other rewards we could include, let us know!
