Camy’s new Patreon

I'm trying something new for the next 6-7 months. If it works, I'll continue, but if I end up not liking it, I'll stop it in September or October.

I will be starting a monthly subscription membership on a new Patreon account.

I will be posting the chapters of my current book (Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7) so you can read ahead of when the ebook will be edited and published. My current plan is to post 1-2 chapters weekly.

One reason I’m switching things up is that I want to get closer to my readers and build a tighter, more intimate community with you. You can comment on each chapter of my book, give a reaction, ask a question, or even correct mistakes. My books will become a dialogue with you.

If you subscribe to my Patreon, you'll be charged monthly and have access to all the benefits for the tier you subscribe to.

The benefits include not just early access to my next book, but also early access to bonus extras about my books and cover reveals, your name in the acknowledgments section, audiobooks, Zoom calls, and the chance to choose the name and description of a character in a short story.

Here’s where I need your help:

My Patreon hasn’t launched yet, but you can view a preview of my Patreon here.

My tiers aren’t finalized yet, and I’d like to know what you’d like to see. What do you think of my current tiers? What perks would excite you? What kinds of things would make the Patreon really amazing for you?

Please take a look at my Patreon preview page, then take my poll here.

This is not a commitment to joining my Patreon, I just want some feedback on my tiers. I’m hoping to launch my Patreon in 2-3 weeks, depending on how my writing is going.

Everyone who takes the poll will be entered to win a copy of any one of my paperback books (yes, even international readers can enter!) or, if you’re a writer, all five of my Story Sensei ebook worksheets.

Deadline is March 15, 2024.

Thanks!

Isaiah 40:29

Dear God,

Thank you for being my strength when I am feeling weak, tired, and hopeless. Thank you that I can depend on you in trouble and know that you hear me and will rescue me. Please increase my power so that I can stand strong in the face of troubles and trust completely in you.

Amen

What’s up with Camy

I made a totally PINK impulse buy—a cute bowl to eat my (gluten-free) ramen in. You can check out my Camy Tang newsletter to see it.

Also, check out this lace test swatch! It’s going to be the cover for a lace journal that I’m going to offer on my upcoming Kickstarter. What do you think?

The lace pattern is the same as the lace shawl worn by my heroine Lena in the book I’m working on, Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7: Spinster. I’ve knit the shawl, but I haven’t gotten around to blocking it yet and I also have to write up the knitting pattern.

I’ve arranged with a quilter to sew up cotton fabric book covers to fit the blank journals I bought from Levenger and I’ll sew this lace panel onto the book cover. I think it’ll look so cute! I hope my Kickstarter backers will like it too—I can’t be the only one who loves blank journals and collects them obsessively, right???

Speaking of journals, here’s another one I bought. Isn’t it’s pretty? I thought the patchwork of different Indian embroidered fabrics was so interesting.

My IBS acted up a bit this past week, even though I’d been really careful with my diet. I’m not entirely sure what I ate that might have caused it. The pain and nausea got kind of bad, so I took it easy for a few days before getting back to writing. Please continue to pray that I'll be able to keep my IBS under control and keep up with my writing!

I also want to pray for you! The best way for you to keep me updated on your prayer requests is to friend me on the YouVersion Bible app. When you create a prayer request, be sure to share it with me and I’ll pray for you when I use the app every morning. You can also reply to this email or you can anonymously fill out my Prayer Request form.

That’s it for this newsletter! Happy reading!
