September 2021- Facing the Sun early access- ArtbyTesslyn (Patreon)

Below is the download pack for this month's high-res early access pages of Facing the Sun! If you're new this month, you will have to also download August, July, and June to be fully caught up.

Discord users know this already, but the FTS pack is shorter than usual this month (15 pages) because I was overloaded with other work and I didn't want to burn myself out.

Hi there everyone!

I think I say this a lot, but this last month has been hectic! Mostly in good ways, but that also means I was super busy and would like to take a long nap. Next month I'll be taking my first vacation in 4 years for my birthday (to an isolated cabin in the woods with no one for miles, just the way I like it). Packs are a bit smaller this month because I wanted to get a head-start on next month! So even with the vacation, no worries, there won't be a content change.

And hopefully, in November, I may get to see my partner in person for the first time in almost 2.5 years. Not to get emotional, but I couldn't properly describe the dread of unknowing that being separated from the most important person in my life for so long has brought me, even with all of it being funneled assuredly into my work during that time.

I want to say that if you're reading this, if you've supported FTS, you've undoubtedly made a positive change in my life. These acts of kindness help keep me going, not just financially, but emotionally. In bleak moments, remembering that there are so many strangers willing to support my work illuminates what would otherwise feel like a persist dark void of uncertainty. So thank you, so much. I hope you're doing okay, wherever you are, and if you aren't, I hope it gets better soon.
