PLOT RACE!
Added 2021-02-23 10:50:42 +0000 UTCOk, reading the results of the previous poll, the answer is positive, so the next month I will show you the plots list I'm preparing, and then you'll be able to make an offer to see these stories realized.
Things to remember:
1) You can ask modifications, but nothing that will change a lot the original plot. I also added for each plot the things that can't be changed.
2) I will get the money only from the winning plot, and I will gather them before starting the story, not immediately. This is because I won't be able to start the story as soon as the plot race is over, because I still have some custom works to do on my list, but I will place the winning story in my "to do list" as soon as possible. Only then I will gather the money from the people that made offers for the winning story.
3) You can't afford to make big offers? You can try to place what you can anyway, even if it's low, maybe that little money you placed will help this story to win the plot race, since it will be added to the offers of other people.
4) The people that made offers for the winning plot will get the story as soon as it's ready, or even while working on it, so you can have any pics I prepare, or just all of them when finished. Other people will get this story as a standard patreon reward when the time will come.
I'm not sure about how much time I should give to people to make offers for this plot race. At the beginning I was thinking one entire month, but maybe it's too long. Maybe two weeks? Let me know what do you think about this!

Thanks for your nice comment! I had this idea because this way I could also work on stories that I'd like to realize and getting some money to pay the bills, otherwise I'd have to focus only on custom stories, that sometimes I don't like, but I have to do them because people pay me for them. Maybe with this plot race I will never get the same payment as custom works, but if I'll manage to get something I will be able to cover the monthly expenses and work on some of my projects sometimes.

Very creative on your part! 😃 People get to vote with their wallets and may be the best, most compelling story win the plot race! I think 1 month is the simplest solution, so it restarts every month. You can put the winning plot into your queue and collect the winning bids. I am curious: how did you come up with such a good idea? More artists should do this.
