I will end the comic (Patreon)

Hey, pals. I have important and sad news regarding my comic, so please read it carefully.For the past 9 and a half years, I've been doing my comic, and for the last 4, I had the pleasure to call it my job. I had very high highs, being 3rd in a popularity contest on Webtoon, getting to know amazing fans, and having my comic on the website's banner. It was amazing. But I also had very low lows, like facing countless homophobic comments, getting banned and expelled from Tiktok because of homophobic mass reports, and getting my comic deleted from Webtoon for a whole day. It's been quite a ride.I love doing the comic. It allows me to express myself in ways I couldn't and reach and educate people on LGBT topics. Help LGBT individuals become more confident in themselves and make the world better, even if it's just a little.In the middle of the pandemic, Webtoon allowed me to become a freelancer thanks to their Ad Sharing program, which helped me a lot for so many years. But since Webtoon canceled this program this January, I've been struggling financially for months.The cancellation wasn't a surprise. I had time to plan many things to mitigate the losses. But those plans weren't successful. I planned to do shorter comics but two times a week to get enough money, thanks to the Video-Ads on the app. I got burned out after a few months and had to take a short hiatus. I planned to open my Etsy store once more to help me get more sales. Etsy withheld my earnings for months. I planned to make more NSFW episodes so people could join my Patreon. It worked, but not enough.I started having significant losses in March, and it's been like this since then. For 5 consecutive months, I've had losses of about 3 and 4 digits. And here comes the Kickstarter project. This will be my last plan. My last chance.I've worked on it for months. I am very excited, and I hope it's a success…But being honest and seeing how my other plans and projects went, there's a big chance it's not gonna be successful even if I try my best.That's why I've decided that this Kickstarter campaign will be the last chance I give to my comic "Hey, I'm Gay!", and if it doesn't reach its goal, I will discontinue it and end this series.I will try my best to promote it. I am already promoting it on social media with the time I have. I will send emails to more than 300 bookstores worldwide to try to get more bakers, but I can't do more. I'm tired, and overwhelmed with work that doesn't give me enough money to pay my bills, and I feel stuck doing a series that is dragging me and isn't giving me enough money to live.Thank you for reading.TLDR: I've decided that the Kickstarter project will be the last chance I give to my comic. If it doesn't reach it's goal, I'll end the Hey, I'm Gay series.
