Hey everyone!
Figured I'd stop by and let all my patrons know how everything has been going since I uploaded that first video about my situation.
Your generosity has blown me away. I was seriously on the verge of tears a few times in the days following that video; the way you all came together to help me out when I really needed it was inspiring, and further assured me that this is actually possible. I cannot thank you enough.
Since that video, you may have seen that I updated the Patreon goals so that $2000 a month is my full-time threshold. I was hoping it would be less, but with my wife going back to school I have to be our primary source of income, and that means making enough to live on even after taxes take about a third of this income.
My wife and I are currently trying to plan out a move, hopefully sometime in the next few months, as there are few options for employment here and living is fairly expensive. That may mess with my schedule a bit once the moving starts in earnest, but I'll try to keep things from getting too out of hand.
Currently, I was accepted back at the Gamestop I worked at before taking this last job. I'm being given enough hours that we've financially stabilized a bit, but still not enough to detract significantly from my available time to work on the show. And now that things have settled down a bit, I'm working on implementing a regular schedule so I can treat this show more like a day job, which should increase productivity and ensure that you all get content regularly.
Again, I can't thank you all enough for this. Pledges have been growing steadily, and I really do believe that this show can grow into a viable full-time job if I can keep this up. Thank you so much for your support, and I hope you enjoy what I've got in store.
Sincerely,
Sam Gronseth II
