In the year 2016, my patrons directly funded the making of:

  • 150 hand-made books
  • 93 hand-written postcards
  • 48 hand-made art postcards
  • 34 essays
  • 8 short stories
  • 8 audiobooks
  • 6 videos
  • 3 scripts
  • 1 full play draft
  • 1 full novel draft
  • 1 trilogy treatment
  • 1 published art book
  • 1 TED Talk

…in which they all received a share through Patreon. To be clear: I cannot make art without patrons. They pay my salary. I am so grateful to each and every one of them. I’m not yet to a living wage, so if you haven’t pledged yet, please do. Go here and pledge just $1 a month. Direct patronage is the future of art. And we’re going to need art to fight fascism in the times to come.

Thank you.
