Why do this?
Why do you keep posting only the first chapter, and then keeping everything else behind paywalls and purely patreon exclusives?
Why not do early patreon releases and release the chapters here eventually.
Or have some stories on patreon fully, while still posting some others here (with earlier releases on patreon)
Your actions just seem to want to alienate people who can't financially become patreon subscribers and make these GTSworld uploads a waste of time to read. Why read this when people will never get to read the rest of the story unless we pay for it.
And the fact you removed fully published stories you had here before to only reupload them on Patreon and putting them behind that paywall. Why? Why not leave those here as they had been.
You had stories people liked reading, and took it away and told them if they want to read it again, they have to pay for it? That's not cool, and again only alienates people and would make them *not* want to become patrons.
You're using this site purely as an advertisement for your patreon, which I feel is just wrong.
Other writers here have patreons, but they still post stories here in fully, they don't keep everything behind paywalls. Maybe you should reconsider your approach.
But the damage has been done for some people, you've really put a stain on your stories here.
Author's Response:
Things aren't always free in this world. Writers invest time and effort in what they do. Some decide to give away their work for free, I've decided, after writing dozens and dozens of stories, that my work was worth a little something. I don't think 3$ to have access to all of my stories is asking too much. Perhaps you do not agree and it's okay, however, if you ever feel like you want to support me as an author and enjoy my stories, you know where to find them.
