Tardigrade
Welcome to my private Patreon posts. Get early news about stories, events, and anything that’s going on for me, and be part of our conversation about writing, art, animals, and life. We look forward to getting to know you better!

- Access to any rewards unlocked at our current phase.
Fox Level

Cephalopodish Level
- Cephalopods (and higher tiers) receive a signed copy of the ARC for my next book, when it’s published.
- Access to any rewards unlocked at our current phase.

Apartment-Dwelling Beast Level
Limited (2 of 3 remaining)
Do you ever think, “I wish there were more tardigrade fics,” or, “Why doesn’t anything ever include the phrase, ‘Hurrah! The herring fleet!’?”
- Each month you are a Beast (or higher tier), you can (if you like) suggest a 250 topic. My usual 250 rules apply: it could end up anywhere, be about anything. It might lead to a longer piece, it might not.
- Access to any rewards unlocked at our current phase.
Gug Level
Limited (2 of 2 remaining)
Some of you are writers, and for you, my dear literary Gugs, I have a special offer.
- Twice per calendar year, I'll send Gugs (and higher tiers) a personal critique of one short story (up to 5000 words), including line edits and a written critique of a page or more.
- Access to any rewards unlocked at our current phase.
The Big One
Limited (2 of 2 remaining)
It’s incredible to think someone might feel like this about my work. Your donation at this level is an amazing affirmation of what I’ve done thus far and what I want to do in the future.
You have your own reasons for supporting my writing, so the rewards will be everything from other tiers, plus something specific to who you are. In similar situations, I have written a private children’s story, created fiction from prompts, offered betas/drafts of stories, chatted on the phone, shared plans for the future, or visited when I’m in town.

Goals
- Another drawing! I’ll draw a second name at random from everyone contributing $2 or more each month, and mail that person a signed, print copy of an uncommon work of mine -- a translation or an early, hard-to-find magazine. (US only; if I draw a name from another country, I’ll arrange a different prize.)
