Pages May 2020. End chapter one.

Here they come the pages of this month... seven pages! The end of the first chapter!

I hope you are enjoying so far. It ends in a kind of cliffhanger. For the second chapter things will change a lot. New places, new characters. Now she will discover how her "new life" is like. 

I'm already taking notes and sketching ideas and scenes for the second chapter. At 5 pages per month it will take about 5-6 months to complete. As I've told before I write the main plot turns and events, but until I start sketching the pages I don't know if I will need more or less pages to explain clearly the events. I don't write the script all at once because 1. It would take a long time 2. I get bore drawing scenes I wrote long time ago. I try to keep the creative sparks fresh and alive.

Next month I will draw the cover and prepare the pdf. As always that I upload a new pdf I will also do some cleaning of the archives. I will delete some of the older posts with the stuff already available for sale.

In a few days (Saturday I hope) I will post new things of the game and a new beta. More characters to talk with!

Thanks for your support!

...And there's some important news regarding to taxes in Patreon. From July 1 they will show the taxes apart in the price. It depends on where you live and every country has different tax policies so it's quite complex.  Patreon has a long article explaining it.

Anyway because my main tier is $3 it will only increase a few cents and not even to all supporters.

Below I've cut+paste some of the main questions from the long Patreon article:

---

Where is Patreon collecting tax, and what are the tax rates?

Patreon already handles the collection, filing, and remittance of VAT (European sales tax) for patrons in the EU, and has been doing so since 2015 when the laws changed in the EU. See EU VAT rates per country.

Starting July 1, 2020, Patreon will begin charging and paying sales tax in the below list of additional countries. As sales tax laws change, Patreon will add or remove regions as needed to comply with new regulation.

---

Can I include sales tax in my tier price, so I absorb the cost and it’s not an additional charge for the patron?

In the US, we are not legally allowed to include sales tax in the pricing. It must be broken out as a separate line item and added on top of the base price. In other regions, most of the time prices do include sales taxes, such as VAT in Europe which is normally included in any price shown. We are looking into how we can update Patreon to accommodate tax customs in more regions but this will take some time.

Patreon has even given us creators a letter to explain to our supporters. How kind of them!

Post title: An update on sales tax

Hi everyone,

I wanted to give you an update on some changes that we’ll be seeing which may affect some of your pledges. Due to new laws passing in several countries and US states, Patreon will be required to start charging sales tax on some pledges starting July 1st. 

Less than half of all patrons will be charged sales tax, and for most, the amount will be very small. For example, sales tax rates in the US range from 4% to 11%, so on a $5 pledge, that would be between 20 cents and 55 cents. 

Whether or not you will be charged sales tax depends on your location, and what is considered taxable there. Not every pledge is taxable, not all benefits are taxable in every location, and sometimes only a fraction of a pledge will be taxable. The money that Patreon collects as a result of these laws are paid directly to local governments.

I’m working closely with Patreon to ensure I’m able to save you as much money as possible when it comes to sales tax - which is not something that’s possible with other platforms.

If you’re in a location where sales tax will be required, you should expect to receive an email from Patreon with more information about this very soon, but I wanted to make sure you were aware of these changes way ahead of July 1st when they go into effect. 

If you have questions, you should be able to find answers here. If you still have questions, the best place to get an answer is from Patreon’s customer support team, here. 

Thank you for all of your support.
