Important february update! (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone 💖✨✨
Just a quick update with some changes and plans I wanted to share, and also explain why I haven’t posted much these past days. This is still a long post tho,, sorry :')
Summary:
February billing pause due to personal matters, I’ll still try to share some poses (iOS subs will auto cancel during the pause, patreon will email you to resub once billing restarts)
Little heads up for members who subbed through iOS patreon app, apple adds a 30% fee!
Old poses return 🫶 wakey members will keep access to old exclusive poses, I’ll reupload them gradually
Another new wakey benefit: a 15% off code for my ko-fi shop
I'll stop using patreon's shop for most of my stuff and only use ko-fi
Plans for a new tier someday!
And a short personal update I felt was important to share
February billing will be paused: I know it might feel early for another pause and I’m really sorry about that! These past days have been especially busy and emotionally heavy due to the passing of one of my grandparents. Between that and other personal matters, I wasn’t able to reach my pose goals this month so I wouldn’t feel right charging for february. I’ll still try to make and share more poses during the month though!
(Looks like some of you subscribed through Apple’s iOS billing, so when I pause billing, patreon will cancel your sub automatically and email you once billing starts again so you can resub if you want, so just letting you know in advance! Oh and by the way! If you subscribed through the patreon app on an iphone/ipad you’re paying extra because Apple adds a 30% fee. If you wanna avoid that the best option is to unsub and then resubscribe through patreon on a web browser instead. After that you can go back to using the app normally, nothing changes except you save some money 🫶 just wanted to make sure everyone knew!)
Old exclusive poses are coming back! From now on, wakey members will keep access to older patreon posr posts 🫶 over the next few weeks you’ll see me slowly reuploading older references so they’re all available again!
I used to erase patreon pose posts after two months bc I thought it was fair for long-term members and helped avoid people subbing once, downloading everything, and leaving. But after thinking about it more I realized it might actually be doing the opposite of what I wanted. Sure there'll always be a few people who take advantage, but cutting access for my loyal patrons just to prevent that doesn’t realy feel right to me, I’d rather make sure the people who support me consistently can always look back at the content they helped make possible 💖 sorry it took me this long to realize!
New wakey benefit: Wakey members will get a 15% discount on my ko-fi shop! I’ll make a wakey-exclusive post with a discount code that I’ll keep updated and put it in it's own collection so it's easy to find. The code will be valid for a full year ✨✨
Shop changes: I’ll stop using patreon’s shop. I really like ko-fi's cleaner and cuter design and tbh I’m not a big fan of how patreon handles product posts, they feel messy to me 😭 so yeah, all my pdf books, special collections, psd packs etc, will be found in my ko-fi. I may still use patreon’s shop occasionally for specific collections or posts only.
New tier plans: I’m planning to open a new tier called ✨hungy✨ at (maybe) $10, with a new monthly reward, extra discounts, and I'll probably share personal art there too! Idk when yet but it'll happen eventually hehe
And lastly I think it's important I mention this: I don’t feel like goign into too much detail about my personal life right now, but I’ve been dealing with grief for a few years now and lately it’s been catching up to me and making things harder day by day, especially with executive dysfunction, I’ll want to draw or do chores but actually starting feels impossible, while my brain is nonstop planning and overthinking everything. it’s pretty exhausting. I know it wont last forever, I’m just giving myself a little time for things to feel more manageable again. I’m okay and I’m not alone ❤️🩹 I have the support of my family and close friends and we’re getting through it together even if it’s still hard sometimes.
That's all for now, TYSM for reading! And truly thank you for your patience, kindness, and support 💖 It means more than I can put into words. I’ll keep you posted with any updates!
