Monthly Update - September 2019 (Patreon)

Video posted in September:

Astra Lost in Space Anime VS Manga -  https://youtu.be/dEEIgXGmbXs 

Hey there, folks! Just wanted to do a quick update.

So I only got one video done in September. Yeah, that seems to be pretty typical of the amount I get done per month now. It seems like I'll at least get 2 out in October, which will be nice, but we will have to wait and see.

In September, I honestly didn't spend that much time on Youtube stuff. Far more time was spent on University work; however, when I was working on Youtube stuff, it was generally on FMA. Fortunately, that's going really well, but I've decided not to post anything until I have a lot of material done. In fact, I'm thinking I might do an FMA week or something like that, where I put out one FMA video per day for a week. At this point, people have waited a long time, so I'd rather just keep working on it, release a whole bunch at once, and then at least the wait will make some sense to everyone I think.

Other than that, I have one script nearly complete, an outline complete for another one, and one script totally complete. These are one-offs, and generally a bit shorter, so it's not as though I'm starting some another series or taking a lot of time away from things.

If I have time, I will also post an audio update for September, but full disclosure I am not certain I will get one out there with how nuts University has been. Also, it's unfortunate, but it doesn't seem that many videos will be releasing early to Patrons (as I'm sure you've probably realized by now anyway). I'm not even getting videos done that frequently in the first place, so it's not as feasible to release them early. If I do get a whole bunch of FMA videos done at once, maybe I'll put them up here on the same day for $3+ patrons. I think that would be good.

Also, as much as I've tried to put more into this, I'm basically at the point where this is clearly a hobby that comes secondary to most other things in my life. For a time, I was focusing on Youtube a lot more, releasing a lot more content a lot more consistently, and I just want to be clear that I probably won't have that level of consistency again for a long time, or that you at least shouldn't count on it. I just want to be clear that, if you are Patroning under the impression that I'll go back to weekly uploads or something of that sort, it's looking more and more unlikely. I know that probably doesn't matter to many of you, but now that I've basically made that decision, I wanted to relay it to you clearly, so that you can make an informed decision about where your money's going. In fact, based on my lack of consistency, I've considered shutting the patreon down altogether, but that wouldn't really make sense since you should still have the option to support me this way if you choose to. Plus the money from here does help me focus on some projects that I know probably won't get many views but that I'm passionate about all the same.

Anyway, that was quite the ramble. Thanks for reading this whole thing. I really appreciate all your support, and I hope I'll get some more videos done in October.
