More private stuff, masks off ...


$2 / month
For less than a cup of coffee, this gives you access beyond public posts, to 'Patreon Only' posts, where I share more private stuff, about my creative process, some of it absurd, masks off. Further, I'll include stories of photographic moments - with image of course. A lovely challenge for me.

$5 / month
Same as above, and in addition you can ask me a question, to which I'll respond ... either with a few lines, a quote, or a spontaneous Haiku.
dream consultancy
Limited (20 remaining)


$50 / month
Same as all the above offers. Plus I'll immediately post a paperback of my novel, 'Course of Mirrors,' to you, signed and dedicated to you. And, if you wish, we could arrange for a monthly dream consultancy via e-mail.

Goals
0% complete
First - to ease my present financial stress. There are few small but vital things that need fixing around my home.
I made some progress: big clearing in the garden, crumbling steps fixed, and the leaking old iron gutters on two sides of my house were replaced by a trustworthy and excellent builder. Big sigh of relief. Just before the rain.
Second - mail out copies of 'Course of Mirrors' to a list of magazine reviewers, and finance a general marketing campaign.
Third - get a Kirkus review to add to reviews 'Course of Mirrors' has gathered on amazon, which may help when entering competitions for self-published books.
Fourth - To prepare the sequel, 'Shapers' for publication with Troubador, both as paperback and e--book.
And to prepare one or two poetry chapbooks, and possibly a short story collection.
