During these challenging times, sapphic fiction authors are looking for ways to diversify their income, while many readers would love to support their favorite authors more directly.
I put together a list of sapphic authors you can support via Patreon, Ream, Ko-fi, and similar platforms.
On Patreon and Ream, supporters pay a monthly subscription fee and usually gain access to exclusive content such as bonus scenes, short stories, early access to new releases, or behind-the-scenes info.
On platforms like Ko-fi and Buy Me a Coffee, readers can support writers by making a one-time (or recurring) donations.
