I’ve created another way for fans to support my work. Pledging a monthly donation to my Patreon page<\/a> won’t really get you anything special. If you’re purchasing my clips, you’re already supporting my work. I really created the Patreon page for people who also enjoy my work in other places (e.g. DeviantArt<\/a>) and want to support my efforts. I figured I announce it here in case there is anyone who just wants to give me a monthly stipend or if there is someone who can’t download clips but still enjoys my web-site, etc. and wants to pitch in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On a related note, this thought struck me when I realized that I needed a new action cam because the seven year old GoPro is having serious problems and it has allowed me to get video that I simply couldn’t capture before I had it. In other words, I really need an action cam to make great swamp videos and the old one is no longer reliable. So, there goes $300 that I’m having trouble justifying with the income I get from clip sales so I decided to try an additional revenue stream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you, for all of your support. This website exists because a small core group of people support it. About 0.1% of the people who frequent this website purchase clips. Those of you who do are the very backbone of this project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
