Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher owned by @unforth/Nina Waters, founded by fancreators to help fanartists and fanfiction writers publish their original work, with an emphasis on works featuring LGBTQIA+ characters, needs YOU!
To help us maximize the amount of money we can pay to creators, we rely on our Patreon to pay our overhead costs. As things stand, we need to bring in about $750 a month to pay our baseline monthly expenses…and as of now, we’re bringing in just under $500 per month. Factoring in our website sales, other online sales, vending, and crowdfunding campaigns, Duck Prints Press is hovering right around breaking fiscally even (which is a recent development, and extremely exciting), but we can’t grow, initiate more projects, pay creators more, expand our offerings, get software and equipment that will help us streamline our processes, and more…without enough money coming in to ensure we make ends meet each month.
That’s where you come in! The more people support us on Patreon, even just at $3/month, the more we’re able to do!
In exchange for monthly support, we offer a bunch of cool rewards for people who choose to back us, with levels ranging from $3/month to $25/month. All backer levels include access to our Discord, behind-the-scenes blog posts, voting rights on polls that decide anthology themes, and at least one free short story per month. At higher levels, backers get exclusive merchandise, one art work per month, access to our monthly Duck Prints Press Panel, bonus stories, free selections from our book catalog, extras for supporting our crowdfunding campaigns, and more!
We can reach our goals, and you can get lots of excellent stuff, by backing the Press on Patreon now! AND you’ll get your choice of a freebie if you back during the month of August! All our current backers will get to claim a freebie too, as a THANK YOU for their long-time support of our work.
We're also running a giveaway on platforms that include sharing functionality! Want to win a copy of the first edition of our debut anthology Add Magic to Taste? Go check out our posts on other platforms, like and share them, and you can get entries to win! Read all the deets on our crossposts those websites:
