Early access
Read it Early
On Patreon & Ream · from $1 a month
My books go up on Patreon and Ream as I write them, a chapter at a time, before they’re edited and published. Think of it as an early reader copy that arrives in installments.

Read it chapter by chapter while I write it, before it reaches a bookstore.

Why Subscribe

Questions
Good to Know
Will these stories be published as books?
Yes. Everything I post for subscribers becomes a book, available at all the usual stores. Subscribing just means you read it first.
Are the early drafts different from the final books?
Usually a little. Every book gets edited before it’s published, and reader comments sometimes lead to fixes or clarifications along the way.
What happens to a story after it finishes posting?
Once the next big project starts, finished books move to Captivated (Platinum on Ream) and up, so those tiers hold the full back catalog.
Do I need to subscribe to join the Discord?
No. The Discord is free, and most of the book discussion happens in the free channels. Higher tiers unlock the Platinum channels.
