Another platform I’m going to use in 2024 is Ream. It’s similar to Patreon, but designed specifically for writers. I’m going to set up my account in January, and I’ll share the link as soon as I do. But here’s what I’m planning for my subscriber tiers. Let me know what you think.
Tier 1: Feed the Starving Artist $5/month
One free ebook (per quarter)
First for news/announcements/cover reveals
Vote on book covers
First 3 chapters of all available books
Thank you in book acknowledgements
Tier 2: Book Fan $10/month
All of tier 1 plus
Monthly short story
Name a character (once)
Early reader copies of new books
Exclusive epilogues or deleted scenes (on release dates)
Tier 3: Big Fan $15/month
All of tiers 1 and 2 plus
Access to current project as it’s being written (monthly)

Tier 4: Super Fan $20/month

I feel like this is an exciting new platform and I can’t wait to see what it brings.
