I have opened up a membership open here with the following benefits:
- Chance to beta read my work before anyone else
- Exclusive members-only chat (talk direct with me)
- A monthly video-reading of short story published for members only
- A weekly drabble
The cost of this? $5.00 a month or the option to pay for a year up front at $50.00. It might sound scary but this is actually cheaper than when I sell my beta books over on ETSY and, you get even more content too!
Obviously it is not necessary for you to sign up for such a membership (especially as I also run a Patreon page which will be pushed harder too) but I am all about giving people options and, with all of the options, there is always the opportunity to say "No".
