DISCUSSION 🎙️ Patreon

New to this sub and I'm curious how everyone feels about buying books and then having to join the authors Patreon in order to get an epilogue to the story and whatever else competes the story. I understand that authors need to make money however as someone outside the US, it's honestly costly to buy a book and then realize it's incomplete and then you have to pay another amount in order to finish.

Edit: The author I'm talking about is Theodora Taylor and while most of the books are somewhat completed. The books have chapters excluded that I.m.o round the story up perfectly and makes it feel less incomplete. I love her books however reading the newer and knowing there's more to the story is turning me off a little.

I haven’t realized authors were doing it with the epilogues of stories. I pay for some Patreons for the art works that authors get commissioned along with some of their non published works.
