Patreon is not exposing patron counts by tier for this creator, so this section shows public prices and benefits only.

$0/moFreePublic prices and benefits only

$1/moI Will Acknowledge Your ExistenceYou will receive my gratitude and I will kill you last in the Apocalypse. Any public posts will be yours to enjoy.

$3/moMore BangFor this tier, you get the rewards from the tier below this level AND get to ask me ONE question (via Patreon message) about anything you want - kittens, US foreign policy, the year the Swingline stapler was invented -- ALL without me either ignoring you or mocking you for not Googling the answer yourself. Before you waste your one question asking, yes, your one question can be a writing question. Questions only! If you abuse this tier to be a PITA, you will not like the answer you receive. Warning: All questions will receive a complete (to the best of my ability/NDA-allowed) and honest answer, so choose your question wisely. Do not ask if you do not want to know the answer!

$5/moPen PalYou want a little more than the promise of a monthly general update post? Okay. Sure. Patrons at this tier will receive the benefits of the previous tiers AND access to the Patron-only (infrequent) newsletter! Every now and then, I'll write you a letter (in post form) here on Patreon and it will be delivered to your inbox for your reading enjoyment (you'll have to enable newsletters on your account, I think). It won't be personalized, but don't let that stop it from making you feel special.

$10/moCheck For TrapsWow...a natural 20 on your Perception check! Now you get access to the benefits of the previous tiers AND the occasional snippet of a work-in-progress or a draft of something I'm polishing. Could be anything! Perception checks only tell you what you see, not what you want to see.But what's this that you discovered? A secret door? Why yes! Where could it lead?A DISCORD SERVER! Wow! Patrons at this tier will also have access to my Patreon Discord Server - Lair of Doom - where you can chat with other fans and occasionally me! I will work out a schedule later, but the goal is to host a weekly chat for at least 30 minutes about whatever comes to mind. Maybe there will be behind-the-scenes secrets, or random chit-chat about pets or peeves. You'll only get to know if you support me at this level or above!

$20/moJust Happy To Be HereFor this tier, you just get the writing goodies. You're just here for the words, and that's okay. This is a bare-bones, feed-my-cats option. No special attention, no special perks, no Discord server. You get my acknowledgement, I'll kill you last, and you get to see what I'm up to when I post to Patreon, in addition to seeing snippets of what I'm working on. Low maintenance, no pressure. We're going to get along just fine. Bar to the right. Tip the bartender. Oh, you also get nagging rights at this level. That means you get to occasionally ask me (nag/pester/bother) about what I'm working on, or even IF I'm working on something, without me giving you a dirty look. I mean, that is the whole purpose of this thing, right?

$20/moHere For All The ThingsJust what it says on the tin. You get all the things below this tier, plus access to the Patron-only Discord server, Lair of Doom! There's another option at the same level if you don't want All The Things, but this one is the shiny version!Oh, you also get nagging rights at this level. That means you get to occasionally ask me (nag/pester/bother) about what I'm working on, or even IF I'm working on something, without me giving you a dirty look.

$25/moRedshirt CameoSo you want in on the action, do you? Okay...your funeral. Literally. You subscribe to this tier and not only will you receive the benefits of the previous tiers, I will make you a character in a story I post here. You don't get to pick your role or your fate -- just your name (if you wish -- you can also leave this up to me). You can flesh out your cameo with a brief description of your preferences (appearance, gender, etc.), but you don't get to pick anything else. And your character will probably die a gruesome death.

$30/moTea TimeAfter talking with my handler a friend, I was encouraged to add a tier which offers nothing but a simple conversation with your favorite evil writer. (Me. I'm your favorite evil writer.)For your patronage at this tier, I will host a 30-minute MONTHLY Zoom conversation with you (and any others subscribed to this tier; this is not a one-on-one conversation - bring your own tea.)Disclaimer: I will absolutely end contact with you and banish you from my presence forever if you make an ass out of yourself, show me your collection of severed heads or any other body parts belonging to you or anyone else, or ask me for inappropriate favors. Don't be a dick.I suppose you can also have access to the writing stuff and my Discord server. After all, we'll need something to talk about.This tier is limited to 5 Patrons.You know I'm antisocial.

$50/moSocial DistancingMaybe you've heard rumors of what happens when you invite Dina for a hangout. Maybe the stories are true. Whichever it may be, you want to find out. For this tier, you will receive the benefits of the previous tiers (except the Redshirt Cameo and Tea Time) AND a one-time 30 minute live chat with me. This can be via Skype, Zoom, or Google Hangout. We can talk about anything you like! It can be a party with your virtual friends, or just a one-on-one tea with you, me, some scones and my cats (appearance of cats are not guaranteed but will most likely happen, because they are cats).

$75/moBring The PainSo you're a writer yourself or know someone who is and you want to give them a brutally honest critique because you think they suck but can't tell them yourself? Fine. Send them my way. I'll take care of that for you. While I do offer critique packages on my website separately, this tier is an exclusive package. For this tier, you will receive the benefits of the previous tiers (except the Redshirt Cameo and Tea Time) AND one aforementioned brutally honest (sadistic, even) critique of the first three (3) chapters of your (or a friend's - WITH THEIR PERMISSION) work. If you subscribe to this tier, and want additional chapters critiqued, we can work something out. If you subscribe to this tier and don't want the critique, I will question your motives but still accept your patronage. You might have something eventually you want critiqued in brutally honest fashion.This tier also comes with an exclusive role on the Discord Server - VIP. You will have access to the Balcony Table where you can have private conversations with me and other VIPS/guest stars/moderators, and your own chat thread for getting up to no good.

$100/moI Live Here NowIt wasn't enough to have your name(sake) included in the work, was it? Oh, no. You have to come in, eat the food in the fridge, put your feet up on the couch, and ask for the wi-fi password. Is that so? Fine! You're paying rent, you get to live here (metaphorically -- you are not actually invited to live with me). For this tier, you will receive the benefits of the previous tiers (including the cameo role for yourself or a friend; Tea Time not included) AND create a permanent character that gets to live. I will make sure this character shows up at least once a year (if not every story/post) and will do my best to ensure their safety. Same rules as cameo role apply - you get to provide a name (if you wish -- you can also leave this up to me) and a brief description, with the addition of including a personality quirk! (Such as "they like ice cream" or "they are always doing a puzzle.") You do not get to dictate to me how your character is used or how they develop or go about their storyline. I'm the writer, not you. You're just a guest with diplomatic immunity. (If you subscribe to this tier and don't want the critique, I will question your motives but still accept your patronage. You might have something eventually you want critiqued in brutally honest fashion.) I will also acknowledge you in any books I publish from now on, by way of thanks for your generous support (unless you wish to remain anonymous, which is absolutely up to you; just let me know).This tier also comes wit

$100/moCabin in the WoodsThere's another tier at this level that isn't quite what you're looking for. You don't want (or need!) a writing critique, and you're not really interested in much else besides the stories, and maybe a cup of tea at the Lair. That's just fine. Introverts are welcome! Come on in. The bar is to the right, but with your generosity, you get a private seat at the Balcony Table. You get some of the other things, too, but this is another tier that's just the basics, nothing fancy. I won't intrude on your solitude very often, so no virtual appearance unless you want one.I will also acknowledge you in any books I publish from now on, by way of thanks for your generous support (unless you wish to remain anonymous, which is absolutely up to you; just let me know).

$150/moNow It's PersonalWhoa. Okay, listen. I appreciate your zeal...I really do...but I might take JUST a knitting commission, so if you're just here for the evil-in-every-stitch, see me after class! If you're here for all the goodness of the previous tiers (except I Live Here Now Diplomatic Immunity, Redshirt Cameo, and Tea Time) PLUS one small hand-knit item of your choice (hat, scarf, gloves, pencil bag, toddler-sized sweater - NOT socks; I do not knit socks), by all means, choose this tier. (If you subscribe to this tier and don't want the critique, I will question your motives but still accept your patronage. You might have something eventually you want critiqued in brutally honest fashion.)This tier also comes with an exclusive role on the Discord Server - VIP. You will have access to the Balcony Table where you can have private conversations with me and other VIPS/guest stars/moderators, and your own chat thread for getting up to no good.

$500/moShut Up And Take My Money"I ain't cheap, but I can be had." - Jack T. Colton Look, if you're willing to pay me half a grand PER STORY, I will happily write one just for you, every month, as long as your checks clear. (Everyone below this tier will have to wait an extra month to read what you get first.) In addition to all the perks of the previous tiers (except Diplomatic Immunity), you will also receive a signed & personalized paper copy of every book I have previously published, AND any I publish in the future, as well as their respective ebook formats (if available). You will also be included in any acknowledgements in any future publications, and will likely have something named after you.This tier also comes with an exclusive role on the Discord Server - VIP. You will have access to the Balcony Table where you can have private conversations with me and other VIPS/guest stars/moderators, and your own chat thread for getting up to no good.

$1,000/moLudicrous SpeedLook, it's your money and I'm not going to tell you how to spend it. If you're willing to part with a grand a month for my stories, I will not only grant you all the perks below (except Diplomatic Immunity), I will make you a quilt*.No, really. I do that, too. It started as a pandemic hobby, and now it's taken on a life of its own. Crafting is a hell of a drug.What's that little asterisk up there for? Well, that's to tell you about the catch.Of course there's a catch!You can't just waltz in here and throw money at me and expect me to spend 100 hours on a quilt, which would amount to about $10/hour. No. If you choose this one, you must remain at this subscription tier for three months.That's right. You want a handmade quilt in the colors of your choice (lap/throw size approximately 60"x60" - I don't have space or ability to make anything larger at the moment, but we could probably negotiate a little), it's going to cost you three months support. That's $30/hour, which is more than fair for a one-of-a-kind hand-sewn quilt. (And that's not including the price of fabric, thread, and everything else that goes into the process. This tier is a BARGAIN for everything you'll get out of it. )Further caveat is a quilt takes time, so don't expect a quick turnaround once your checks clear.I'm limiting this tier to one patron, because I'm not here to quilt. I'm here to write, and you're here to enable that.This is it. This is all there is. This one goes to 11.This tier also comes with an e
