After a lot of thought and planning, with still so much to do, my partner and I have decided to finally make that leap and take our first trip to study in Japan this year!
Spring is much closer than we think, and because of all of the lifestyle changes and home life matters, my work schedule will be changing a fair amount, but I plan on explaining everything in one place.
Firstly, I will not be un-launching Patreon, but I will be temporarily discontinuing the patient tier to replace it with a 1USD "tip jar"... PATIENTS WILL STILL RECEIVE THE LOGS THAT ARE DUE! I will simply not be going forward with the sequences until further notice, as having something recurring is distracting and makes working on commissions harder to focus on, and I will be working almost ENTIRELY on those alone these next few months.
Second, I'll be sharing a visual schedule in the Discord server every month, but from now on every week, twice a week, I will be hosting 4 slot sketch comm streams! Patrons will of course have first dibs, but please wait for the evening before stream days to reserve a slot- Twitter will only be getting to stake claims a few hours before the stream begins if Patrons have not already taken all slots.
Third, I will of course be working on all of my backed up work first, so other than stream days I will not be accepting anything new for a little while, until my due basket is completely empty.
As for other Patreon exclusive content other than first dibs on stream slots, discounted commissions, the ability to make requests during wind-down streams and of course Discord community access; I will still be doing pinups, though this time with much less time to offer suggestions and to participate in the poll so that the pieces will be done much sooner (this is something that's going to be a permanent change!).
These past few months have been rough, but I've had you all here to make it feel worthwhile. From here until the Springtime, when it will finally be my chance to explore more options for how I'd like to continue further both in work and life, I hope that I can continue to receive the wonderful support that you all have given me in what seemed like such a short amount of time.
Please, if you have any questions or comments, do share!
Here's to what is starting to look like a beautiful new year of change- but that makes sense, considering what we're all here for, right?
Thank you all for reading, and I hope you look forward to the new changes and content.
