If the work has been worth something to you
There is nothing to buy on this page and nothing arrives afterwards. It is here because a few people have asked, and because the alternative — putting the writing behind a paywall — would make it worse.
Everything I publish is free to read. The essays, the training notes, the design arguments, the record of every version this site has been through. That is deliberate: work that has to convert in order to justify itself starts getting written for conversion, and I would rather it stayed honest.
Contributing changes nothing about what you get. There is no tier that unlocks anything, no members-only writing, no badge. What it buys is time — hours not spent behind a bar are hours spent finishing the book, building Homeostasis, or shooting something properly instead of on a phone in a mirror.
To be unambiguous: I am an individual, not a registered charity or non-profit. A contribution is a gift, it is not tax-deductible, nothing is provided in return, and it is not a purchase. If you want something in return, buy a book or a programme instead — that is what those are for.

Not open yet — I have not set this up, and I am not going to pretend a button exists before it does. If you want to be told when it is, the dispatch below is the only list I keep.
The Valentine Dispatch
Follow the whole project.
New writing, training notes, and first word when the book and the programs open. One list, sent when there is something worth sending.
