D. D. Webb is the author of The Gods are Bastards, a high fantasy serial that is currently updating every Monday and, if funding goals are met, Friday, with chapters coming in an average of 4,000 words. This does mean the author spends a lot of time and effort on the story. They have a job to pay their bills, but it does so only barely, and leaves them just enough time to keep their ambitious update schedule. Even so, they’re left with little in the way of resources to deal with sudden problems, and have previously had to rely upon the generosity of readers to cope with such things as medical bills and auto repairs. While the author would like to earn a living as an author, they are also very fond of the idea of content being free for readers, in the spirit of the open Internet. Not everyone can afford to contribute to creators, and they don’t believe that should bar their access to great stories and art. They’re committed to keeping TGaB free, and keeping it running, but they need help making ends meet so they can continue to do so. If you cannot contribute, please don’t feel bad. If you can, however, the author deeply appreciates all the help their readers give them. It really keeps them going.
