BECOME A MONTHLY SUPPORTER
Art for art’s sake.
At the heart of it, this is what I’m about.
I will always make because of the reward that comes from the making and preach the good word that everyone is creative and able to access this same reward.
It is also true that this work is sustained by money. Money I make from my art, from other paid jobs, from the support of people like you.
I’ve created tiered membership offerings and they are listed below.
My blog is forever free, but I want to give people with means and interest a chance to help me do what I do beyond buying my work.
Sign up below to become a patron.
And if commitment isn’t your thing, you can make a one-time donation here.
Thank you forever.
Memberships:
I’m grateful for the gift of writing and art-making. It’s not a luxury to me, but a necessity. And it’s certainly not something a person chooses to do to make money.
Mary Oliver said it best: poetry isn’t a profession, it’s a way of life. In other words, engaging with a creative practice is an intrinsic part of a person — not a job. I would make stuff regardless of making money from it.
Still, I believe everything is an exchange of energy and I want to offer people who care about my work a way to support it beyond just buying what I make. If you’d like to, you can become a patron. I offer three tiers, each with its own small perks.
I like to keep things flexible and a little playful. Higher tiers come with a few extra treats—maybe a real cassette instead of a digital one, or an occasional extra print.
Thank you for considering supporting my work!
