			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A &#8216;true fan&#8217; pointed me to <a href="http://www.kk.org/thetechnium/archives/2008/03/1000_true_fans.php">an interesting article</a>.  The premise is that it is possible today for authors and artists to support their passion by finding just 1,000 &#8216;true fans.&#8217;  This is in contrast to the &#8216;traditional&#8217; approach that tends to leave publishers and promoters fat and happy and artists &#8217;starving.&#8217;</p>
<p>So I thought, &#8220;Let&#8217;s give it a whirl.&#8221;</p>
<p>On the bottom left hand side of this page is a donation/subscription form that uses paypal to process payments, credit card and otherwise.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the deal:</p>
<ul>
<li>If you subscribe to making $5 a month contributions, I will in return commit to writing a short story every month for your reading pleasure.  In addition, I will give you any soft cover copy of one of my books <em>every </em>year at no additional cost to you.</li>
<li>If you subscribe to making $10 a month, I will send along the short story I write each month AND let you read each chapter of the Birth Pangs books <em>AS THEY ARE WRITTEN!</em> Also, I will give you any hard or soft cover copy of one of my books <em>every</em> year at no additional cost to you.</li>
<li>If you subscribe to making $15 and up a month, I will include the above and allow you to <em>comment</em> on the Birth Pangs chapters as they are written.  This will allow you to be actively involved in the development of future books!</li>
</ul>
<p>I will be exploring other options to add value to being a member of the AR Horvath &#8216;True Fan&#8217; Book Club.  For now, have at it!</p>
