When do you read?

Okay, this poll is 'cause several people mentioned that they don't get emails from Patreon.
I just figured that most of you did. Thanks especially to Steve and Justin for saying something. Yeah, other people said it too, but those two tag-teamed me today. So... yeah.
(Did I just thank Steve and Justin for tag-teaming me? Oh, boy... it's gonna be one of those days, isn't it? This is the downside of being an erotica writer. Everything has a double meaning and we're always thinking about sex. But I digress.)
Anyway, when do you read?
P.S. - This poll will be open for at least a week. Why? Well, that's what Steven and Justin mentioned, and they probably aren't the only ones. So...
P.P.S. - If you use the Patreon app, you get updates. Just not in email. Well, maybe both. But that's what I meant with the "I get emails" options.
Comments
I get the emailed sections early on Monday mornings. I would prefer to read them on the weekend but I usually get curious and read them by Wednesday or so.
2019-07-18 01:40:22 +0000 UTCI get emails, but I wait to read until my wife and I are driving some where a half hour or more away. Then I read aloud while she drives.
2019-06-27 20:51:23 +0000 UTCI get the emails and notifications in the app, and usually read within a day or so. Usually within minutes.

2019-06-25 22:23:11 +0000 UTCI do get emails, I don't check them very often because it's not my all day every day account. Most of the time I just check in on the website a few times a week.
2019-06-25 19:10:12 +0000 UTCSometimes I am overseas for a few months with no connections.
2019-06-25 12:17:01 +0000 UTCI get emails from Patreon and I'm able to received them on my phone. But I am not able to read or access the site right away since I'm at busy with work. When I manage to get same free time (some time even after few weeks), I try to catch up with it.
2019-06-25 09:03:41 +0000 UTCI get emails from Patreon as well as Patreon app notifications on my phone. But, I usually am not able to read right away since I'm at work or busy. When I do get time, I will open the email on my laptop and use the link to go to the Patreon web site so that I can write comments as well as be able to click on the "like"/heart buttons. I use a Chrome browser extension called "Just Read" to eliminate all of the extraneous "clutter" of the Patreon web site while I am reading the chapter text.
2019-06-25 01:21:38 +0000 UTCEven though I may get emails. With all the mail floating around you have to set up a filter to sort it. Then I binge read when I have time. If the Epub is available I get it on my tablet so I don't need to keep opening my next email
2019-06-24 23:42:02 +0000 UTCLike the email because the WiFi at work doesnβt mind an email content wise. Helps for reading on Monday.
2019-06-24 23:31:21 +0000 UTCI like to get the whole book and read it in one hit. I think this is a hold-over from when Nick was really busy ten years or so ago, and chapters were a long time apart.
2019-06-24 22:43:51 +0000 UTCI read when I get post notifications through the patreon android app...
2019-06-24 22:13:46 +0000 UTCI get email updates and check Patreon at lest once a week.
2019-06-24 21:40:30 +0000 UTCI read at night. I literally have over 150 serials that I keep up with. It's insane sometimes...
2019-06-24 21:23:37 +0000 UTCActually, I'm binge-reading--I've made it through 25 chapters of "Christy" over the last week...

2019-06-24 19:10:40 +0000 UTCI don't have the app but I do get the emails - my only annoyance is when (UK side of the pond) a live discussion is scheduled at US time but it's a 'little' late here ... not an issue personaly as I'm here to read not whinge, umm. ;P
2019-06-24 18:28:09 +0000 UTCI get the emails but tend to lose lose them in the shuffle and fall behind. Depend on how much I want to see what's going to happen next vs how much I want to read a whole chapter at once I'll check into patreon at least weekly and read there. It's a struggle!
2019-06-24 18:27:35 +0000 UTCSame here, CET. I get email updates and read as soon as I get the email. No better way to brighten the first day of the workweek.
2019-06-24 18:17:20 +0000 UTCBasically getting email and app notifications at the same time (Friday afternoon here). I then read via the app.
2019-06-24 18:06:02 +0000 UTCThere is a setting in the app where you can choose email or push notifications or both. I read as soon as I get the push notification.
2019-06-24 18:00:59 +0000 UTCOccasionally, I donβt see the email when it comes in, but a few hours later. I have the computer set it aside automatically in an a smart mailbox called Scipio. I get to it later in the evening when things are quiet and can enjoy the chapter, photo, drawing, etc.
2019-06-24 17:59:01 +0000 UTCI start polling the Patraeon site after lunch on Mondays. (the Release is typical at 2:00pm in my timezone...)
2019-06-24 17:54:02 +0000 UTCI also respond to the app notice. I read the text in the app until the mobi file becomes available. I then reread the new chapter. I do not get an email. By choice i hope.
2019-06-24 17:43:26 +0000 UTCDammit! I forgot about the app... again! π€¦π»ββοΈ
