What would you enjoy as Patreon content?
Dec. 20th, 2019 10:21 amI'm reviewing various aspects of my social media presence and looking for new ways to engage with people. By "engage" I don't only mean "get my content in front of eyeballs" but "successfully use my content as a way of starting meaningful interactions with my readers/listeners."
(Look, I need some sort of positive feedback to give me a reason to put the work in. And honestly, social and intellectual interactions are my preferred form of "payment". Maybe if I were making ridiculous amounts of money from my writing, I'd consider that enough. But I'm not. So positive evidence that people care about what I'm doing and would miss it if I stopped is what I live for. And there have been times that I *have* stopped doing particular projects because I wasn't getting that evidence. Nothing is guaranteed.)
So, since I went through the (minimal) trouble to set up a Patreon, and it's one of my potential venues for getting concrete feedback (in the way of patrons, though not necessarily in the way of social/intellectual interactions), what would you enjoy receiving from me in the way of Patreon benefits? I don't want to skew the results by offering options because I honestly don't have any specific ideas yet. It's more in the way of, "Is there some type of content that you'd enjoy receiving from me that you aren't currently getting that you'd be interested enough to go out of your way to get?"
