Good morning/afternoon/evening to all!
I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and due to a comment from earlier decided to take the plunge and create a Patreon page.
The reason I have not done so before, is twofold:
1.) Since beginning my first web-novel: God’s Trials I have received a total of $1.50 in support from one fan (You know who you are, and thanks!) which has been a very small overall sum through my paypal link. There is a link on the main page taking any and all those interested to my paypal donation page, but it hasn’t been a hit and I have not pressed the issue as I have always wanted God’s Trials and BD to be free works.
2.) I take commitments seriously, at least ones that where others are putting in their efforts requiring my to reciprocate. Thus far I have received non-existent financial support, and only some fan recognition. Therefore I’ve felt free to post and not post chapters at my leisure. There are multiple tiers to those who decide to become patreons, and I intend to honor the pledges made. Which is something I will have to add to my schedule.
Unfortunately, recently I have had too many things on my plate for GT to be a top commitment. I have also started a new story and have implemented and written quite a few chapters in just the last few weeks. Soon I plan on slowing down the release rate for Bloodmoon Destiny (Which by now, some readers have figured out it is a sequel to God’s Trials). It will have some crossover, and a little unlike GT I have fleshed out all of the main plot points for the story. I have a general idea of how long it will be… And it won’t be longer than 300-400 chapters depending on whether I drag some things out.
Due to the fact that I will be slowing down on BD weekly regular releases, this leaves room to increase my GT regular releases and sponsored releases 🙂 (Details on Patreon)
My point being… I would appreciate any and all support that readers are willing to offer, and humbly ask you to support GT and BD through my new <Haruimi’s Patreon>.
9 Tribulations 
Would the comment have been mine:). It’s nice knowing that your comments are read😄 Thanks and keep up the good work! I dropped 5 bucks in patron I’d drop more but unfortunately I’m low in cash. Next month I’ll try ten!

Yes it was 🙂
I read all comments, in fact the pages are set up so that I have to approve all posts from anyone who has not posted in the past before it goes live. Even the negative ones that crop up every so often ^^
Thank you very much for your support! As a writer posting not posting his stories for profit, it’s always rewarding to have a reader support you enough to contribute (even when you don’t have too) 🙂

Hi! Thank you for the hard work!
Just a thought… the rewards for the patreon seem a bit… off.
I mean… the pool for ideas is great and all but paying 50$ or 60$ for the “privilege” of editing your chapter seems a bit strange.
On the other hand I would encourage people to help you edit your chapters… especially the first ones, there is a recurring phenomenon of exchanging 1st and 3rd person perspective, grammar and orthographic errors… I mean, it’s not horrible, but it should really receive some love.
Maybe one of the rewards could be to receive the final edited version of the books when they are completed! But I would not put it further than 10-20$ considering that this is the price of many bestseller books 😉
PS: as a technique, i would suggest at the start of every chapter, to write Time, place and person’s perspective.
Example:
17:20, 3rd June – Somewhere in the forest – Daichi
Also putting it when you change perspective.
Anyway, just a suggestion, take it as you wish 🙂
