Patreon Announcement
Hi guys--this is Tammy's assistant, bearing bad news. As of this month, we'll be closing down the Patreon. With TORTALL: A SPY'S GUIDE and TEMPESTS AND SLAUGHTER coming out (October and February, respectively), Tammy is gearing up for tours and events, and I'm gearing up along with her. It's going to be a very, very busy six months, and we're going to be hard-pressed to maintain our normal duties, never mind trying to give you guys what you're so generously paying for.
This month will still have all of the levels covered. Cat profile, QnA, some material cut from one of the books, and a giveaway. But as of the end of the month we'll be closing the Patreon down. It's done a world of good over the past few months, but Tammy's schedule just isn't suited to this kind of site, as we've discovered.
Thank you so much for your support, and we hope you'll sign up for Tammy's newsletter for continued cat updates!

Best of luck to you, Tammy, and the kitties! It's been great following this Patreon while it's been up. I shall continue to await the new books with baited breath and kick in some money for Friskies whenever I can!
Thank you for the amazon link and I hope all goes well for you and the kitties. I'll start buying wet food for the cats the first of the month instead of patreon donation.
Thank you Jen for the Amazon wishlist link! With the Patreon is on hiatus, I just turned my donation into Friskies :)
This is Tammy's assistant Julie--we ARE going to close it down, but since I failed to get things together to do so at the end of July, we're going to post one more month's worth of content prior to doing so. That's all on me, and I apologize.
I was also charged for the month of August.
Are you guys still going ahead with closing this down? I just got charged for this month's contribution, but I thought the Patreon effort was cancelled.
I'm a late-comer to this conversation, but I agree with everyone else--I want to support Tammy in all her endeavors, and would love to continue to support her with or without updates, or with or without Patreon! So please let us know how to best support Tammy! ❤️
I wish to continue supporting as well, with or without the rewards. Please keep this open!
I am sorry to hear that the updates from Tammy will stop, but I would like it if the patreon was kept open so that I can continue to support both Tammy herself, and the kitties.
Here is the link to the Amazon wish list for the meows. I hope it's current. At least with the food, we know it is always needed. Kitties eat! <a href="https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1XA53JCL2RS47/ref=cm_sw_r_fa_ws_t2_FFLnyb02P42M5" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/1XA53JCL2RS47/ref=cm_sw_r_fa_ws_t2_FFLnyb02P42M5</a>
I don't pay any attention to the rewards. Tamora is an author I adore and want to support, and she wants to take care of cats, that's something I can help with, you know? Why not redo the rewards so they're not rewards? Toss something up when it's convenient, not on a mandatory schedule?
How will Tammy fund all the cat needs? I would like to continue donating as well. Does she still have an Amazon wishlist?
Aw I planned to start donating after my next convention. I don't need rewards. If you just left donation tiers
I found a link to the newsletter in a FB post - <a href="http://tamorapierce.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=107760a90fa5099655ca787e2&id=8318f182e3" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://tamorapierce.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=107760a90fa5099655ca787e2&id=8318f182e3</a>
Thank you very much for finding & sharing this link! --filkferengi
Is there a ways to keep th $2 tier so that we can still help the kitties a bit?! I'm sad to see you go (glad that your touring), but I still wanna help the kitties. The bio thing could just post some photos or something idk.
AGREED. Maybe a second Patreon that isn't promising anything??
Speaking for myself, I'm not sending a huge amount of money, but I'd like to keep doing it because I care about what Tammy is doing to care for the cats. Instead of shutting down the Patreon, what about putting rewards on hold and just letting people keep supporting with no expectation of reward? :)
Glad I got to be a part of it whilst it lasted.
Hey, thank you for the update! I've really loved reading the cat profiles and the rest - it's been a blast. But is there some way I can keep up my subscription anyway as a donation? I really love the opportunity to continue to help out someone who's given me so much joy over my life with the things she's passionate about and the cats she loves.... and honestly, I don't need/want anything back in return.
I care about the cats more than all the cat-bios... what's going to happen with the kitty-care in the meantime? I don't need all the updates, if that's the time-consuming part.
