State of the Campaign (Patreon)

So just an update.  To let you know the plan, where my head's at, etc.

The general goal is to catch up to where we "Should" be, in terms of release dates of sets.  Meaning set 18 "Should" have been sent out to you on the 23rd of January, 19 "Should" go out on Feb 6th, etc.  My part of the world is in the grips of a flu epidemic or something, but I'm hoping to be immune now, since I was one of the first to get sick, repeatedly, if I somehow get it AGAIN, I'll be pretty bloody annoyed.

So other projects, writing, playing video games, all on hold until I can get there.  It's actually looking reasonably possible to hit that Feb 6th date for set 19, assuming nothing else goes wrong (queue explosion off camera).  Set 18 is more than 50% finished, and if I can get more spare time in the next few days, you should have it by the weekend.  Then I can spend next week on set 19.

It would be fair to wonder if I am rushing, or putting less work into the campaign, what with the shorter time frame.  The answer is no, I'm probably actually putting More time into each page.  Mostly because what IS suffering, is the down time where I would be noodling ideas, taking requests, making surveys, all that sort of thing.  So each page is taking a bit longer than normal, since I've done less thinking about what I want it to look like.

When can we expect the surveys to resume?  I think for set 20, meaning I'll get it put together soon, and put out to everyone when I release set 18.  I know.  It's less than ideal.  But trying to meet a specific theme is actually pretty time consuming.  Set 18 is once again themeless.  Pretty much a grab bag.  While I plan on 19 being heavy on ASFR, Dolls, Clones, and other things I've accumulated images for, that aren't really my main area, but there is a pretty decent interest in.

Where does that leave the "Bonus" material?  Well, I'm afraid it means for this month I'm going to need to send out coupons for an old story.  If you have a request as to which one it should be, please let me know.  I expect I can resume writing during February, and will have something shiny and new for you for the February reward =)

It's also worth mentioning that Colour Theory finally wraps in set 18.  (It started way back in set 9, at the end of September, meaning it ran for 4 months O_o) And a new series starts.  This one is planned to run in the Patreon Exclusive section, since Colour theory being in the "main" section caused all kinds of logistics problems.

So let me know your thoughts on any and all of this.  Your opinions very much matter, and not just because I like your money.  Though I do very much like your money =)

Thank you once again for all the support.
