Last weekend I went to a really cool 'Unconference' in London, hosted by Patchwork Fez Games, where a load of far more talented and cool creators got together and discussed various topics, from what printers to use, game distribution, why game companies don't progress from 'at the weekends' to full-time... and an interesting one about Patreon.
I've had a Patreon for a while, and you can find it here:
https://www.patreon.com/cw/Autocratik
Part of the discussion was about making money through Patreon and I must admit, it's not something I really thought about. I mean, I set up paid levels on my Patreon, but I've not actually put anything on there that was exclusive to the paid levels, never mind exclusive to Patreon itself - everything that's been on there has been on this blog as well. After all, the number of people who are actually subscribed to my Patreon is in single figures.
What do you think? Would you like me to reveal some 'behind the scenes' creation processes for my next project? If so, should I just put them on the blog and the free level, or should I try putting them behind that dreaded paywall?
As for what I'm working on at the moment? I've an idea for a second book for WILD, but I'm also working on something I like to think of as Grange Hill meets Narnia... The Magicians meets Excalibur...
Called Hex Education.
It'll be smaller... possibly... probably... at least, until the ol' scope-creep sets in!
Anyway, more later. Probably after #RPGaDAY2026... more on that in a few days.
Stay Multi-classy,
