doing it big (Patreon)

it's quite surreal that i get to say this.

today was my last day of full-time work. from now on, i will be working for "The Man" just one day a week. the rest of the time, i will be working for myself and for you, my patreon supporters.

this was a tough decision to make — i was fortunate enough to have a job i did not hate — but i was having a very difficult time balancing My Job with My Creative Endeavours so it kinda needed to be done. how many people get the chance to fund their life by making what they want to make? i couldn't turn this opportunity down. honestly if i didn't feel so indebted to the people at the company i work for, i'd have done this a while ago.

given the fickle nature of youtube monetisation, i could not have done this without your support. thank you. i will repay you by using my newfound oodles of time to create things i hope you like. this is now my full-time job, and i'll be treating it as such.

completely unrelated: i recently watched a certain popular show and thought it was laughable enough to, you know, have a laugh at. given that you are my benfactors, i'd like to hear if you're interested in my thoughts on other media, or if i should just stick to the ASOIAF world. there are a few topics about which i think i have things worth saying, so maybe i'll dabble regardless. idk.

thanks bye
