I don't claim to be a professional or great author. I only write to entertain myself. If other people enjoy my work, great!

If not, let me know why so I can try to fix it.

As I understand it, PRM basically just delays a story being available to non-PRM readers for several weeks, and only PRM members can read it until then. Correct? Or did I mis-read the FAQ?
-
As for skill / experience level; I don't claim to be a professional or great writer, but I have over 50 stories with above average scores on other sites.

I hope you enjoy my work. If not, please tell me what's wrong so I can improve.

Um... peace2300:

Just because someone is new here, it doesn't mean they're inexperienced as an author.  Also, it should be reiterated, in case it isn't clear, that, while it is his story in PRM, access to PRM is granted by me, usually as a thank you for a donation that you make to me.

An author putting one of their stories into PRM isn't necessarily them saying, "Hey, my story is worth you paying for it."  After all, if you don't want to pay for it, you just wait until it clears PRM.  It's really just a way for them to make a donation without it costing them any money, by giving others an incentive to make a donation when they otherwise wouldn't.

Authors who put work into PRM are foregoing a portion of their feedback for a time, and, as an author myself, I know what that costs, psychologically.  As such, I'm grateful to any author that puts material into PRM for me.  After all, they get literally nothing out of it.

So, to Limnophile, and all the other PRM authors, I say thank you.

Eric Storm

No worries, Peace2300. Everybody has a bad day once in a while. I was trying help out the webmaster a little, nothing negative. Take care, and keep reading.

Make a Donation

Please Help.

Donation Chart

(For more information, please click here.)


If you cannot, or do not wish to, use PayPal, but you still want to make a donation, you can use one of the methods below:

Why Donate?

You may be wondering why you should bother donating to some guy on the internet that you don't know.

I'm not going to lie: I don't really need donations to keep the site running. The site costs me less than $20 a month. Though donation money does go to pay those bills, the primary need is elsewhere.

I am disabled, and live on a fixed income. I also own an old house that is beginning to have "issues". The appliances inside the home also seem to want to break frequently.

On top of that, I live in a place prone to hurricanes, which not only means worrying about the house falling down every summer, I have to worry about being able to handle evacuations and things like that.

The point is, the donations aren't for the site. They're to keep me fed, clothed, and housed, and also allow me a little bit of discretionary spending, instead of having to watch every dime to make sure I don't go over budget that month.


So What Do I Get for Donating?

Not a goddamned thing. Let me be crystal clear: Making a donation does not entitle you to anything at all. Donations are a gift, not a payment for a service or product.

That being said, I do like to say thank you to those who support me. I usually do that by granting special access to the website. What does "special access" mean? Well, not a whole lot, but it means you have extra file formats to download stories in, and it also gives you access to "PRM" content.

What is PRM content? PRM stands for "Pre-Release Material". It is stuff that you are allowed to read before it goes public. How long before it goes public is up to each author that chooses to participate in the PRM system.


In conclusion, if you want to help keep me funded and happy, please make a donation by your preferred method of those listed above.

And thank you in advance.
