Q&A – Not a Chapter

Q&A – Not a Chapter

Its been very encouraging to see my story gain such traction, and (mostly) great reviews and ratings.

Defiance of the Fall was something I started thinking about a year ago, but only properly started writing in April. I would never have expected it to get the exposure and following at this magnitude, but its amazing.

Ive gotten a few PMs asking about things as donations and Patreon, so Ive decided to open a Patreon account. I had always planned to do so if the web novel was well received, but rather in a month or two when Id built up a reader base and page count. But the reader base is already here so Im jumping the gun I guess.

As there potentially will be people who donate money for my writing in the future, I think I need to make a few things clear about the novel and the future so no one will feel tricked. And the whole thing turned out too long for an author comment so Im posting it separately.

I created the following Q/A to clear potential confusion about the direction of the novel. Comment if you feel I missed something pertinent.

Q: Is he ever getting off this god damn island?

A: Yes.

Q: What do I get for becoming a patron?

A: Nothing for now. I have only opened up the most basic account so there are no such things like tiers or rewards. I plan to have something in the future, perhaps exclusive other POV chapters, One-Off stories from other parts of the multi-verse etc. But I have no timeline for stuff like this, my focus is on moving the story forward. For now, it is simply wanting to support the novel and me without any expectation of special goodies.

Q: Will new characters mean multiple-POV storytelling?

A: No. The focus is and will be on Zac. There might be some guest-POVs like Azzun and Ogras has given, but the main storyline will be seen through Zacs eyes.

Q: Will there be R-18 stuff? ( )

A: No. While there will be romance there wont be any explicit content. Neither on RRL or on Patreon. I have no interest in writing that stuff and dont feel that it would add anything to the story.

Q: What about harem?

A: No. Zac wont be collecting jade-skinned kingdom-toppling beauties as though they were Pokmon.

I hope that clears stuff up. If there are any other questions regarding this feel free to throw a comment and Ill try to answer it. No spoilers though. Regular chapter around the usual time, 19-21 PM Europe-time.

TL;DR:

Patreon up, give me money to buy dog sweaters. DotF will have no harem, no R-18, no butt stuff. Things like release rate might change in the future.
