My New Project REVEALED!

I've been teasing a new thing or thang I am putting into the sphere. Here it is.

This Monday, May 15th, 2017, I will be launching my patreon.

Each month I will release a chapter - of considerable length - for a brand new story that will only be available through patreon, and only if you are a supporter of this campaign.

The purpose of the patreon is to not only build a community for my work, but to raise funds and create a dedicated support for the works of other artists, even so far as eventually creating a convention that celebrates all of our stories.

This is both exciting and pants-shittingly terrifying for me.

Links will drop Monday.  I hope you'll join me in this new journey.

Here is the front page for the project:

My name is Andrew Slac.

I made this patreon for the purpose of first releasing a serialized story to folks who routinely show their support, leading to the support of the endeavors of other artists, as well as a few plans on the grander scale.

Each month I'll bring you a chapter in a tale of fiction that you will have first access to if you choose to pony up the buck and support. But the buck doesn't stop there! That dollar (or more, if you're feeling really supportive) will also get you exclusive access to other patreon only content and activities including streams, vlogs, blogs and more. 

THE STORYAmong Men
genre: fantasy

First chapter teaser: The tiny nation of Bellsara, too small and weak to fight on her own, is surrounded by warring enemies and only survives by supplying two things to whomever is willing to pay: food from her crops, and soldiers of her sons and daughters. Our story begins during yet another siege of yet another territory deemed an enemy by purchase. This is where we meet our hero, a child like any other of Bellsara, a farmer turned soldier, conscripted to fight enemies that are not their own. And while their beginnings may be humble, their destiny is one of glory and great change...

...And that's pretty much all I can say without spoilers.

Also, exclusive content comes with the exclusive right to be a part of the conversation with each post. I will answer as many questions as I can, and I may even apply your suggestions and sprinkle a bit of your awesome into the story. Not the plot, of course, but if you have ideas you'd like to see, they may just end up in the story itself. Don't want your ideas in the story? Don't post 'em! Good. I'm glad we had this talk.

Generally, being an artist is an isolating life, but I don't want to live that way. I love people and believe in the brilliance that everyone has the potential to show. This patreon allows me to not only share something unique, but also creates a community based on support, communication and the exchange of art and ideas. Which is kind of my life-long dream.

If things go well, and I mean really well, this patreon will help lead to much grander projects, as well as create opportunities for others to show their work, and share with the world a part of themselves that may otherwise go unseen. I am a man with massive dreams and the drive and passion to get them done, and to support those who support me.

Alone we are amazing and together we are mighty.

If you do choose to pledge, I thank you. In return I pledge to create great works to the best of my ability, and to grow a community based on communication, support, opportunities and entertainment. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit this patreon. 

Whether you are a supporter or just someone passing by:
Have the best day you've ever had!

Andrew
