Fictioneers!
Once a month, a sneak preview (by email, no less than 2,000 words) of my current fiction or a reading (by me) from my other fiction. It could be science fiction, it could be fantasy, or it could be science fiction that looks like fantasy. The reading replaces the old and unpublished fiction, for everything has been published or shared with my patrons.
Crisis Management
This made me realise that my friend is not only generous but has seen something I had not. I will be in real trouble in the future if I lose my capacity to adjust my living space to my disabilities. In other words, I need enough money coming in to get through COVID-19 and its side effects without losing the capacity to handle the next few years.
This tier was originally to be taken down at the end of 2020, but now it will remain as long as the pandemic limits choices so severely. it's marked as $3 only because Patreon demands a dollar amount to create a tier.
If you're already a Patron and you want to help, you can make your donation (in your regular tier) higher for the duration or you can add a donation here and delete it when you're ready. It can be for any amount ($3 or above, because of the way Patreon works) that suits you.
Thank you for helping me with the very extended set of crises. I hope that we all navigate safely through these very rough waters.

Walkers in Strange Lands
Until the new novel is finished, you get a monthly update on its progress and the interesting experiences of writing it. When my pain matches the novel's pain...
When the novel is in draft form, you get to look at chapters and to talk about them and to influence my edits. You also get acknowledged when the novel is published.
For your New Year present, you may choose one of my e-photographs. Everything from the Middle Ages to haunted eucalypts at your disposal.

When it's all done, you also receive an e-copy, the moment a publisher publishes one. Given this might take a while, you may choose one of my e-photographs instead. Everything from the Middle Ages to haunted eucalypts at your disposal.

Goals
Unfortunately, my life took one of those turns and will take a few years to emerge. Every cent I receive from you will help me get through it. This goal takes me to the poverty line. It means I can use my savings for other things than paying for basic groceries.
The closer I come to this goal the more basic expenses will be covered. If I get close enough to it then I'll be able to take some of the time I on the work that pays bills, and use it for creating fiction.
How quickly I write varies from novel to novel so I can't promise a novel in a year, but I can promise to use the money wisely. My current novel is set in the alternate universe that first appeared in a recent short story. I', not very far into it. The first novel that patrons supported me through from beginning to end will be published this year. It's set in that same world.
he next few years are not going to be easy for me - I greatly appreciate every bit of help you give.
