Update! (Patreon)

Hey friends! I hope you all are doing well and keeping safe.

Firstly, I just want to say that if you're still supporting me on Patreon, thank you so much! I appreciate that you enjoy my content enough to support me financially.

That being said - times are tough right now!! Money is tight and the future unsure for a lot of people. If you need to pull your pledge to put your money where it is more needed or to help you feel more in control and secure in your finances, please do! My Patreon is more like a tip jar than anything else, and I never want people to feel obligated to stay pledged! Please do what you need to, please take care of yourselves first. I'll still be here, chugging away at my stories!

Secondly, I have a lot of projects on the brain, and with the added weirdness of the world, my focus has been all over the place, and my anxiety has been rampant. I am trying to stay productive, but it's become difficult. The content on this Patreon (and on social media) might start to be less uniformed, which I don't think is a bad thing! But here are the state of projects I'm thinking about / working on

-BACKLASH: on hiatus for a little bit! I need to step back from this comic for a little while so I can give it the care and love it deserves. I want to do some clean-up on the story, and finish drawing all the website assets (like character art) before I get back to it! It will remain up and free to read forever tho so if you want to refresh yourself on the story or read it again, you'll always be able to!

-Blueshift: The TTRPG I GM with my roommates! The first two episodes are available to listen to on YouTube. After a lot of consideration, I've decided to continue uploading the sessions here on this Patreon exclusively for now. Blueshift has a lot of overlap with BACKLASH (characters, setting, worldbuilding), and I don't want to so easily pull the curtain back on BACKLASH from sharing Blueshift first. (I hope that makes sense, haha.

-THE SPAM SHOE CHALLENGE: I have a whole google doc about this dumb bet between friends that you can read here, but the TL:DR is I have to play 60 video games in 1 year or else I have to eat a shoe made out of spam. I will be doing video game livestreams on Twitch every Wednesday until January 2021, desperately trying to not eat this terrible meat shoe. You can watch those streams over here! I will make tweets every time I go live! :>

-A thousand short stories and comics, including a few that I'm trying to work on graphic novel pitches for. I have so many ideas I want to get out there, but have been really struggling with my brain. I'm taking it easy and trying to slowly make progress, rather than getting overwhelmed and doing nothing. I appreciate your patience with me, and I will continue to do my best!

-Podcasts: You remember Speech Bubbles: A Webcomic Podcast? Well, I wanna do another one, except about.... villains in media >:) I'm still deciding exactly how I want to format it, but it'll def be released here on Patreon whenever it starts being made!

-Video series reviewing webcomics: Exactly what it says on the tin! I think it would be fun to stretch my essay/reviewing muscles again, and what better way than to shed light on my favorite form of storytelling? :>

SO... That's what's on my plate, currently. Staying home, staying inside, social distancing, washing hands, all that good stuff. My house is hanging in there, and I hope all is well with you and yours.
