Hi patronites! I owe you a proper apology and update about the June rewards
My original delivery date was July 8th, and I later moved it to July 15th. We’re now 13 days past the first deadline I gave you, and I’m truly sorry for making you wait this long 😔
I updated the previous posts whenever the estimated date changed, but I know not everyone may have seen those edits, so I wanted to explain everything properly here
The truth is that I underestimated how much time the June rewards would take, especially because of the extra content. After that, I had some family complications, got sick, and today I also spent most of the day without internet
At the same time, I still had to produce the July content normally, so I wouldn’t create an even bigger snowball and end up falling behind with two months at once. Trying to balance both things made everything take longer than I expected
Those circumstances made the delay worse, but I also want to take responsibility for the part that was my mistake: I calculated the timeline badly. I often plan based on how much energy and focus I expect to have on my best days, without leaving enough room for tired days, ADHD struggles, unexpected problems, or simply needing more time than I imagined 😅
I’ve been feeling more mentally tired lately, and although the difficult days have become less frequent, I still need to stop creating deadlines as if they will never happen at all. I tend to overestimate how much energy I’ll have and underestimate how long everything will actually take. It's part of the ADHD package, as my psychiatrist says 😅
I don’t want this to sound like a list of excuses, because I know you trusted the dates I gave you. I’m genuinely sorry for the delay and for changing the estimate more than once 😭
I’m finishing everything with the care and quality you deserve, and the June rewards will be delivered on July 22nd 🥺🙌 There's just a tiny bit left, I promise! ><
I also know there are people waiting for replies in my DMs, and I’m really sorry I haven’t been able to answer yet. There are also still a few people waiting for prints they purchased (you know I do these in batches), because I had to pause everything else to focus completely on finishing the rewards while also keeping July’s production moving
Basically, it’s the classic one-person company thinking she can handle absolutely everything… and then realizing she can’t 😅
Thank you so much for your patience and understanding, and especially for continuing to support my work even when things don’t go exactly as planned 💜 Your support means so much to me, and I never take it for granted
