I Think I Finally Figured Out Patreon

I guess I never really figured this whole Patreon thing out…

Until recently.
When I first started, I wasn’t really sure what I wanted it to be. Was it just a place for updates? Early announcements? A way to share a few extra thoughts here and there?

Over the past month, though, it’s started to become something much more.
I’ve been posting behind-the-book content, talking about the inspiration behind my stories, sharing insights into the Howling Moon universe, snippets from upcoming releases, first looks at future projects, and giving patrons the very first look at new book covers.
It’s also become the place where I can talk about the things that don’t really fit anywhere else—why I write horror, what inspires my monsters, the Appalachian folklore that influences so many of my books, and how stories change from their first draft to the final novel.

Looking ahead, I’m planning to keep Patreon active every week with new posts, including exclusive short stories, character spotlights, behind-the-scenes looks at my novels, and updates on whatever project I’m currently working on.

If you’ve ever wanted to know what goes into writing one of my books—or just want to see what I’m working on before anyone else—Patreon has become the place for that.

I think I finally figured out what I want it to be.

And honestly…

I’m having a lot of fun with it.
