Sabbatical (Patreon)

Transcript:

Hello.

Effective immediately, I will be on a working sabbatical. I will continue to publish work, but it will not be scheduled. I will still produce work on an unscheduled basis, and you will unlock a library of over 100 audios available only here on Patreon. You will be unsubscribed after this month if you’re not in the Analyst tier (the $5 tier), so please switch down to that if you wish to continue with me here.

I’ve increasingly grown frustrated to the detriment of my mental health trying to stay on schedule for monthly delivery here. The reason for this stems from my fragile psyche and the side effects of medication. As of six months ago, my ability to think and create has been altered to render my process useless. As a creator, this is incredibly frustrating and affects me daily.

How I envisioned Patreon in the past has been a transactional activity where I provide a monthly service. I cannot fulfill that way of creating now, and the transactional nature puts pressure on me that I don’t need and don’t want. I want to get back to creating for the sake of creating because I’m an artist. I want to share that with you, and I’ve been grateful for your support. My small income from this helps me tremendously with unexpected expenses and emergencies. I will never forget the kindness your support has provided.

This year marks the beginning of my fourth year producing erotic audio. I want to continue, but I am also interested in experimenting with other forms of storytelling on an audio platform. I need a chance to play and find process again, without the pressure of needing to deliver a ‘something.’ And so, the working sabbatical.

I will still be here. TV night, Movie night, Gaming Events, and Twitch Streams will continue. I will still be active on Discord. But there will no longer be a guaranteed monthly delivery. I am returning to the freedom of creating, to offer ‘nothing’ or ‘anything,’ but no longer a scheduled ‘something.’

I will be deactivating tier trees except for a single $5 tier. This $5 contribution represents your appreciation and support for me as an artist. For those who have been opting into the upper tiers of support and are generous enough to want to continue supporting to that capacity, replace the $5 amount with your chosen new value.

For everyone who continues to be a patron, in return, I will share creative output here on an exclusive basis. I understand this is not something everyone will want to participate in, and should you withdraw your support pending these changes, I will completely understand. I thank you for being here for the duration you have. If you still wish to support me, participating in discussions and activities there is a free and fun way to do it! The Discord server will still be open to 18+, and the community is active there.
