As of this post, I have fourteen backers on Patreon to the total of $119 a month. This is astonishing to me. Everyone who pledged, signal-boosted, mentioned it in passing on social media, thank you!

Watch this space.

Also, you might want to put a link in every film review you post. Keep laying the thing before the readers. Nudge early, nudge often. Like that.

There is a link in the latest (first) review. Is it broken?

Not broken, now. I just didn't see it. You might want to be less subtle, perhaps? It's not clear that "Supported by Patreon" is a link to your personal Patreon page; you might just be promoting the service. I'd go with a more direct "You can support Sovay's film reviews here, at Patreon" or some such...

I can try to be more emphatic with the next one. I've never had any kind of sponsorship before.

Aye. I think the thing to bear in mind is that it's not Patreon that's sponsoring you; that's simply the vehicle, by which your readers become your sponsors. Of course everyone knows this, but nevertheless.

At one point the review included the line "and viewers like you," but I decided I'd been awake too long and took it out.
